ImageList_DrawEx

The ImageList_DrawEx function draws an image list item in the specified device context. The function uses the specified drawing style and blends the image with the specified color.

BOOL ImageList_DrawEx(

HIMAGELIST himl, // handle to the image list
int i, // index of the image to draw
HDC hdcDst, // handle to the destination device context
int x, // x-coordinate to draw at
int y, // y-coordinate to draw at
int dx, // width of image
int dy, // height of image
COLORREF rgbBk, // background color of image
COLORREF rgbFg, // foreground color of image
UINT fStyle // drawing style
);  

Parameters

himl

Handle to the image list

i

Index of the image to draw.

hdcDst

Handle to the destination device context.

x

Specifies the x-coordinate at which to draw within the specified device context.

y

Specifies the y-coordinate at which to draw within the specified device context.

dx

Specifies the width of the portion of the image to draw, relative to the upper-left corner of the image. If dx and dy are zero, the function draws the entire image. The function does not ensure that the parameters are valid.

dy

Specifies the height of the portion of the image to draw, relative to the upper-left corner of the image. If dx and dy are zero, the function draws the entire image. The function does not ensure that the parameters are valid.

rgbBk

Background color of the image. This parameter can be an application-defined RGB value or one of the following values:

Value Meaning
CLR_NONE No background color. The image is drawn transparently.
CLR_DEFAULT Default background color. The image is drawn using the background color of the image list.

This parameter is used only if the image list identified by himl was created with the ILC_MASK value.

rgbFg

Foreground color of the image. This parameter can be an application-defined RGB value or one of the following values:

Value Meaning
CLR_NONE No blend color. The image is blended with the color of the destination device context.
CLR_DEFAULT Default foreground color. The image is drawn using the system highlight color as the foreground color.

This parameter is used only if fStyle includes the ILD_BLEND25 or ILD_BLEND50 value.

fStyle

Flag specifying the drawing style. This parameter can be one or more of the following values:

Value Meaning
ILD_BLEND25,
ILD_FOCUS
Draws the image, blending 25 percent with the blend color specified by rgbFG. This value has no effect if the image list does not contain a mask.
ILD_BLEND50,
ILD_SELECTED,
ILD_BLEND
Draws the image, blending 50 percent with the blend color specified by rgbFG. This value has no effect if the image list does not contain a mask.
ILD_MASK Draws the mask.
ILD_NORMAL Draws the image using the background color for the image list. If the background color is the CLR_NONE value, the image is drawn transparently using the mask.
ILD_TRANSPARENT Draws the image transparently using the mask, regardless of the background color. This value has no effect if the image list does not contain a mask.

Return Values

If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.

If the function fails, the return value is zero.
