View 15 RepliesI 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?

View 5 RepliesI 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.

View 3 RepliesI have a WebBrowser control that displays a web page, and I need to add some graphics as overlay on this page.
My research indicates that I should add a transparent panel over the WebBrowser, then add graphics to the panel.

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to evade the problem of being unable to have a transparent textbox by using a label. When the label is selected, it selects the info in a textbox elsewhere. Then using Textbox.changed, i stream the text to the label. Maybe the code will make sense:
Private Sub UserLabelClick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles UserLabel.Click
UserTB.SelectAll()
End Sub
[code]....
But the text is not selected and therefore cannot be changed.
I'm trying to make a label control transparent over a Panel control.However by setting the background colour of the label to Transparent, it actually sees right through to the form itself, not the panel as intended.
As an example we use a panel with a background as white, we make the label transparent, however it gets the form�s colour as blue.However, we are using a custom panel control and need the label to be transparent over the panel and not see the forms background.

View 1 RepliesI am using a picture box to load an animated gif as a background on top of my form (same size as the form). On top of that I have a standard label with some text. I have made the label background transparent but it doesn't display correctly with the animated picturebox behind it. The label background is transparent but it doesn't draw the animation correctly under it. It almost looks like it is drawing it at a few frames behind. Now, I know I can draw the text on the animated picturebox by hand (I have done that before) but I am not sure it is possible this time because the labels are part of custom controls.
