Hi, I want to load a PNG (32bit) into a panel to get a nice image-button. No matter what I try, it renders crappy (ignoring alpha). If I use the same image in a toolbar, the image loads with alpha. Any ideas?

possible idea: Pixmap not loaded with the correct format or Panels simply do not support it (I can't get the alpha command to work as well on windows ... most likely a OSX only thingy)

I have the same problem :(

In the meantime we found out that at least masking works on windows alpha is and seems to will stay an OSX only thing until maxgui will support winfx / .net 3
