Vadim Zeitlin 6feeed9fe9 Handle transparency to the best of our ability in wxImageList
Don't take the value of "mask" parameter of wxImageList constructor too
prescriptively, it predates support for alpha in wxWidgets by many years
and was never meant to actually suppress using it.

Instead, do the best thing we can in all cases, i.e. use alpha if it's
specified and supported and use mask otherwise. But only create the mask
from light grey colour if we have nothing else if "mask" is true in
wxImageList constructor, as this is a potentially destructive action
that must not be performed if the user has explicitly decided to set
this parameter to false.

Incidentally fix handling of alpha with comctl32.dll v5 (which is used
in the absence of any manifest) by converting it to a mask in this case:
this is not ideal, but better than just using black background as it
happened before, and restores pre-3.1.5 behaviour.

Also simplify the generic version which just has to create the default
mask if necessary and doesn't have to do anything at all in all the
other cases.

Note that these changes required relaxing some of the existing unit
tests as wxMSW implementation now can add alpha channel to the bitmaps
that didn't have it -- but this is a more useful behaviour, and so it
makes more sense to adapt the tests to it rather than doing a less
useful thing just to conform to the tests.

This commit is best viewed with git --color-moved
--color-moved-ws=ignore-all-spac options.

Closes #22349.

About

wxWidgets is a free and open source cross-platform C++ framework for writing advanced GUI applications using native controls.

wxWidgets Logo

wxWidgets allows you to write native-looking GUI applications for all the major desktop platforms and also helps with abstracting the differences in the non-GUI aspects between them. It is free for the use in both open source and commercial applications, comes with the full, easy to read and modify, source and extensive documentation and a collection of more than a hundred examples. You can learn more about wxWidgets at https://www.wxwidgets.org/ and read its documentation online at https://docs.wxwidgets.org/

Platforms

This version of wxWidgets supports the following primary platforms:

  • Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10 and 11 (32/64 bits).
  • Most Unix variants using the GTK+ toolkit (version 2.6 or newer or 3.x).
  • macOS (10.10 or newer) using Cocoa under both amd64 and ARM platforms.

Most popular C++ compilers are supported including but not limited to:

Licence

wxWidgets licence is a modified version of LGPL explicitly allowing not distributing the sources of an application using the library even in the case of static linking.

Building

For building the library, please see platform-specific documentation under docs/<port> directory, e.g. here are the instructions for wxGTK, wxMSW and wxOSX.

If you're building the sources checked out from Git, and not from a released version, please see these additional Git-specific notes.

Further information

If you are looking for community support, you can get it from

Commercial support is also available.

Finally, keep in mind that wxWidgets is an open source project collaboratively developed by its users and your contributions to it are always welcome. Please check our guidelines if you'd like to do it.

Have fun!
