I'm trying to make an image in a picturebox transparent, so that i can see and click the controls behind it in the transparent area.

View 2 RepliesI need to plot some analog values read from the serial port.I plot them in a picturebox starting from left. When I reach the end of the control at the right side I shift all values to the left of a point and I plot the new point at the right, (I have some flickering but it could be acceptable).
