Syntax

<Destination image>.AlphaBlend(<Source image> [, <Opacity>])

<Destination image>: Image variable

Name of the Image variable in which the blend must be performed. For the blend, this image will be considered as the background image.

<Source image>: Image control or Image, WDPic or picLayer variable

Image to merge. This image can correspond to:
the name of an Image control.
the name of an Image variable.
Versions 25 and later
the name of a WDPic variable. Only the background layer will be handled.
New in version 25

Versions 25 and later

the name of a picLayer variable.

<Opacity>: Optional real

Percentage of opacity that must be applied to <Source image> before performing the blend (100% by default, no opacity is applied).

Remarks

The size of the destination image corresponds to the reference size.
<Image variable>.AlphaBlend performs the merge by keeping the alpha layer of the destination image. Therefore, the alpha layer of the source image is not used.
