Colour window With shape Icon

[hfheatherfox07]

Hi...
I know that this is simple programming 101
But I am working on an app that has a coloured non client area and I tried to add a shaped icon using ResEd
Please see example "Colour window With Icon Test" ...It has a static background!!!!
Is there a way to do it using just a resource ? is this a fault with ResEd ....If so what free resource builder is Better?

I know how to do this using "DrawIconEx" Or  "DrawIcon"  ....Please see example "Colour window With Icon Test_1"

I know how to do this but why wont it work with just a resource rsrc.rc ? that is what I want to know

Thank you
