A good way to make irregularly shaped forms and controls is to use the
GraphicsPath and Region classes.

There are a few articles out on the internet that walk through how to create
irregularly shaped windows forms and controls. If you search on google you
should find some more. A fairly simple way to do this is outlined in the
article linked below.

Hi Friends,
Is there any similar framework dlls for gdi32.dll, used32.dll.
I want to use following functions
1) GetPixel
2)SetWindowRgn
3)CreateRectRgn
4)CombineRgn
5)SendMessage
6)ReleaseCapture
7)DeleteObject
8)GetRegionDataByte
9)GetRegionDataLong
10)ExtCreateRegionByte
11)OffsetRgn
12)ReleaseDC
13)GetDC
14)CreateCompatibleDC
15)LoadImage
16)GetPixel

I want to use this function to make irregular forms........
I think Calling gdi32 & user32 dll is not good way to achieve this,
Framework must have these functions...
Any body know about this please help me in this regard.

Thanking You
Tushar P.
