Is is possible to have one mask for multiple bitmaps in an image list i.e. use the same mask for all the bitmaps or does ImageList_AddMasked create a separate mask for each bitmap?

    Hi, @Adam Berridge Yes. You could use ImageList_AddMasked to create a separate mask for each bitmap, like this official win32 sample.

    I meant create one mask for several bitmaps rather than several masks for several bitmaps.
