Disabling toolbar buttons

What is the workaround to prevent toolbar buttons from displaying a grey square where the image should be once the toolbar button is disabled

I have transparent color of the image list set to transparent (after trying every other color)

Toolbar images are set at design time - bound to an imagelist

Just a thought... Why not "virtually" disable the buttons by changing the
image to a disabled-appearing image of your choice and then just handle it
in the click event handler... if disabled do nothing.

So to make alpha blending work correctly with the Toolbar and the Imagelist I had to use a tricky method with API calls that is described like this by a MS MVP : 1) Use v6 of the common controls (have a manifest) 2) Load the PNG using GDI+

Hello everyone, I am creating a toolbar for an application. The buttons contains images and text. I set the wrappable property for the toolbar to false so the toolbar does not add another line when resize. In this case, when I resize the form the buttons on the toolbar get cut off.
