Opssss, solved, my problem was that I forgot to put "GuiCtrlSetState( -1, $GUI_DISABLE)" after creating the picture. Now the controls work. Sorry I´m a noob.

Hi, this script rocks. I´m trying to see a picture under those controls, but when I add my picture, I can't use the original controls (I can see them but the button or the edit box doesn´t work). Any idea? Thanks. Here is the code, I have added two new lines: CODE#include <GuiConstants.au3> HotKeySet("{ESC}", "QuitApp") $main_Gui = GUICreate("",400,400,20,20,$WS_POPUP, $WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW+$WS_EX_TOPMOST) $Pic1 = GUICtrlCreatePic("mypicture.jpg", 0, 0, 300, 350) $but1 = GUICtrlCreateButton(" Exit ", 100, 100,80,21) $Info_Edit = GUICtrlCreateEdit("A few words to start off with", 80, 150, 300, 220) $masterMask = CreateMasterMask(); AddToMask($masterMask,$main_Gui,$Pic1);add picture to mask AddToMask($masterMask,$main_Gui,$but1);add button to mask AddToMask($masterMask,$main_Gui,$Info_Edit);add the edit FitMask($masterMask,$main_gui);apply the mask to the window GUISetState() While 1 if GUIGetMsg() = $but1 then exit WEnd Func CreateMasterMask() return DllCall("gdi32.dll", "long", "CreateRectRgn", "long", 0, "long", 0, "long", 0, "long", 0) EndFunc Func FitMask($aMask,$hWnd) DllCall("user32.dll", "long", "SetWindowRgn", "hwnd", $hWnd, "long", $aMask[0], "int", 1) endfunc Func AddToMask(ByRef $MM, $hWnd, $ID) $pp = ControlGetPos($hWnd,'',$ID) Local $Mask1 = DllCall("gdi32.dll", "long", "CreateRectRgn", "long", $pp[0], "long", $pp[1], "long", $pp[0] + $pp[2], "long",$pp[1] + $pp[3]) DllCall("gdi32.dll", "long", "CombineRgn", "long", $MM[0], "long", $Mask1[0], "long", $MM[0],"int",2) EndFunc Func QuitApp() Exit EndFunc
