Heya All,

I've been hesitant to add images to my menu bars because of the very poor quality of the disabled image.

I thought I would ask if I was missing something, like an image format or setting which can improve this. I have tried BMP, with/without MSK file. ICOs. Also various resolutions and while 16 colours does seem to be okay, anything else for disabled images shows up as blotchy/fuzzy greyish lumps. I did try using 16 colours images and it just looked bad compared to the 'True Color' iamges used throughout the rest of the application.

I do know that I can Hide the bar instead of disabling (SKIP FOR) and for some items I do but for others I don't want to.

Also know how to mimic a menu using a tool bar and I actually have a control to do that was just looking to see if there was anything I could do with the native VFP menus

Thanks all,
Steve Dingle
