Hallo!

Being quite dissapointed of the transparent-images-issue I´m just working at
a workaround. The aim is to draw a rectangle with a SolidBrush in the needed
background-color somewhere outside the visible screen, and then drawing an
image on it, with Imageattributes.setColorKey set to pixel (1,1).
Now I need to find a possibility how to capture a given region of the screen
(through a ectgle-struure) and put it to some stream in order to reuse it in
a Bitmap constructor...

Any ideas on that?
I have found some examples on screen capturing, but they do not work for me,
as they use a handle to a control that is to be captured, but I just want to
capture some region of the screen...

Many thanks in advance,
