OverlayBitmap Enable Property always false in ActiveX component

[flamme34]

Hello,
i have a problem with the activeX component of imaging source with Borland C++ 2006.
I can see liveStream on my windows but i can't see overlay.

I try to use the sample for overlay :


void PM_Camera_ImagingSource::SetupOverlay(OverlayBitma p* oB)
{
oB->Enable = true;
oB->DropOutColor = RGB(255,0,255);
oB->Fill(chose->DropOutColor);
oB->FontTransparent = true;
oB->DrawText( RGB(255, 0, 0), 10, 10, L"IC Imaging Control 2.0");
}

and

bool PM_Camera_ImagingSource::Start()
{
if ( cameraControl->DeviceValid)
{
SetupOverlay(cameraControl->OverlayBitmapAtPath[PATHPOSITION_DEVICE]);
SetupOverlay(cameraControl->OverlayBitmapAtPath[PATHPOSITION_DISPLAY]);
SetupOverlay(cameraControl->OverlayBitmapAtPath[PATHPOSITION_SINK]);
cameraControl->LiveStart();
return true;
}
else
return false;
}

I saw that when i do "oB->Enable = true;" the state of Enable never change.
if i do :


oB->Enable = true;
if (oB->Enable)
return true;
else
return false;
the function return always false.

must I change some properties for that Enable change state?

I use the DFK 72AUC02

I suggest to test, whether you can draw into the overlay at the device path and see the drawing. If that works, ignore the return values.
