Transparent Form Background Using Me.TransparencyKey = Me.BackColor?

Apr 6, 2012

I can make the background color of the form transparent by using: "Me.TransparencyKey = Me.BackColor"

"Me.BackColor" is set to default "Control", which I think uses 240;240;240 as the color.But using that color as the transparent mask color leaves gaps in controls who are also using that color.By changing the Me.BackColor to a "rare" color this problem is fixed.What problem really is, is that using the "Control" color I get the ability to ALSO interact with whatever is behind my form, which any other custom color does NOT.

Question: Why is this?

Request: I would like to use a custom color as the transparent color but KEEP the ability to interact with whatever is behind the form, how can I make it do that?

Transparent Controls Over Form With Background Image Shows Backcolor Not Image?

Sep 18, 2009

I can't remember exactly if this is possible or not but what I am attempting I would think should theoretically be possible. I know it is possible in WPF but the company I am working for doesn't want to make the transition just yet. Basically what I want is to use a background image on a form for the background and I have a docked control on the right and left. I have set the background on both of these docked controls to transparent however it is showing the back color rather than the background image. I tried, rather than setting the background image property, to override the onpaintbackground and onpaint events and use e.graphics.draw(picture, me.clientrectangle) but it still seems to just pick up the backcolor as the true transparent background so I'm wondering if it's possible to get it to show the background image through the control rather than the backcolor of the form?

Make A Transparent Label?

Jun 23, 2009

I searched the forums and most of the topics involving this seem to be for Compact Framework. I need a transparent text label which shows an object directly beneath it. In this case, a rectangle. (Visual Studio 2010) I noticed that when I set the label background to transparent it shows the form bg instead of anything between the label and the form. How can I work around this without setting my form background to an image? If I were to make a custom control for it, how would that be achieved?

Make A Transparent Label Over A Picturebox?

Jun 12, 2009

I have a small picturebox(34x34 pixels) and want to have a transparent label(maybe 12x12 or 15x15 pixels) in the corner of it, which will be used as a counter.

I saw another forums suggesting adding the PictureBox as a parent to the Label, like this:

Label1.Parent = PictureBox1
Label1.BackColor = Color.Transparent
But then the label just disappears, and no text is displayed.
