• Visual Studio Team System Turning on Code Analysis

  Turning on Code Analysis is done via Project, Properties, Configuration Properties, Code Analysis, General. What I don't get is why you need to double click rather than have check boxes here. For C/C++ it's just a simple No/Yes.

Will this be fixed when the product goes to production There is a mismatch between the Walkthrough and the actual code. When you turn on Code Analysis for C/C++ the documentation says to choose Yes(/prefast). When you ...Show All

I want to load up an image from a .png or .bmp file, and be able to draw the entire thing at an arbitrary transparency level. But I can't seem to find an Opacity property or anything of the like.
