Hi,

I'm trying to add small bitmaps to the MainMenu of an application
using SetMenuItemBitmaps( ... ); I use StretchDraw (or CopyRect)
to adapt the dimensions of the bitmaps to X and Y given by 
X=GetSystemMetrics(SM_CXMENUCHECK) and
Y=GetSystemMetrics(SM_CYMENUCHECK)
I have two problems :
1) Some colors of the bitmaps disappear, I get the background color of
the menu instead e.g. the white sheet in front of the New menu isn't
white,
I can only see the edge of the sheet. (the left bottom pixel is not
white)
2) I can't achieve to display a bitmap on the menus that come from the
merging MainMenu of MDI-children Forms (e.g. Cut, Copy, Paste).
SetMenuItemBitmaps(...) returns true, which means success but success
is not here.

Any idea? Am I doing something wrong?
