Code: (Select All)Dim Shared cBlue As _Unsigned Long
In your program, you're using the variable named cBlue... But you DIM SHARED cBlue~&.... those aren't the same variables.
cBlue defaults to a single. cBlue~& is an unsigned long.
singles don't carry blue transparency values, so they get rounded to 0.
For some crazy reason, I was under the impression that once you DIMmed a variable like
dim x$
anytime you refer to it, the prefix can be left off, ie
x = "hello"
Apparently I was under a delusion. Thanks again for clearing that up, that is probably pretty important to know!
