Ciao a tutti,
I've found a problem or I don't understand about image for buttons.
If I use a .gif image in toolbar buttons works fine, instead if I use the same .gif for a button alone, the image is not displayed.
I want use the same transparent image everywhere and bmp have a "false" transparent background.
I've included a little example.
Many thanks to everyone.

Currently, only .bmp images are supported in mixed (text and image) standalone (not toolbar) buttons.

It would be fine to use GIF pictures on buttons because of their animation possibility.

Animation is ok,
but this is rare in the real world.
GIFs are used to flashing, splashing, blinking
and destroying my eyes and nervous system.
Even here I have to cover some avatars with my left hand

Many thanks Roberto
Often I read the source code behind Minigui and find many things that I do not know: thanks for your (and other) work.
Czarny_Pijar, you are right
, but we can not all be beautiful: the world is beautiful because it varied
That said, my aim is much more banal than animation on the buttons: use images that fit "any" background color that is present.
