8 Bit GIF - Transparency / Forms And Controls

Apr 3, 2012

I have a 8 bit Gif, that is transparent, with controls sitting on top of it, all in a custom control. This part works fine. However, This control is a menu ring (appears around another control with a few options). The transparent part is over a Picbox, that is in a panel. The transparent part of the image seems to skip the picbox and go right through to the panel. I set the panel to a back color of RED. The custom control when its placed instead of showing the image in the pic box that it is on top of, it shows the RED panel I have made sure all my Z orders are right.

Using Transparency With Panels AND Showing Controls?

Oct 11, 2010

I need transparent panels. I simply set that background color of controls to Transparent - this does not solve the problem, as the transparency simply shows the background color of the form, but does NOT show any controls placed on the form, which is the crux of my problem.Why? Because I'm trying to use this skinning example, which does the skin by creating a user control, and make the panels show the skin's background:[URL] It seems I'm going to have to override the panel and paint it's background manually, but I don't understand how it all works; I've created a new class and overridden the panel, but the painting stuff is way above my head.

In the form's class:

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
'Panel1.BackColor = Color.FromArgb(0, 0, 0, 0)
'supposedly a trick to make a gradient background on the form

Workaround For Lack Of True Transparency In Labels And Other Controls

May 4, 2011

I'm trying to make a label transparent. When I set the BackColor to transparent, all it does it take the color of the form it's sitting on, i.e. It's not truly transparent. I've googled it and found this in another thread (from a MSFT MVP)".NET controls do not support true transparency. You can set their BackColor to Transparent (in some but not all cases) and the parent control will show through, but only the parent control. If there is some other control behind that is not the parent it will not show through. That's because the control is not truly transparent. It basically copies its parent in the area behind it and uses that as its background, but that doesn't include sibling controls that may be behind it as well." To me, this is completely unacceptable. Why even include the transparency option when all it does is set the control's backcolor to the form color? I'm trying to add a label over a progress bar to give my user some feedback (because the Visual Studio progress bar doesn't support text, which is also a horrible design shortfall by the way), and have yet to find a way around this.

Rotate The Whole Form?

May 6, 2010

Is it possible to rotate the whole form and all the controls on it at once. If not a form then a panel with all the controls on it. It sounds like a strange thing to need. I can't find mention of it anywhere. Lots of stuff on rotating a picturebox or text. Right now I'm wanting to know if its possible or not and maybe a push in the right direction. The reason I need this is for the following idea.

A large touch screen laying flat on a table with people all around it (say something similar to MS Surface). Each person would have their own form oriented in the proper direction for where they are sitting so they could read it.

VS 2008 PictureBox Rotate?

Dec 29, 2009

I've rotate pictures using code like this vb.net Picture.Image.RotateFlip(RotateFlipType.Rotate90FlipNone)

How can I remove any rotation? I have a code which rotates images but and saves the roation to a database.For example I save a value such as

1 = 90
2 = 180
3= 270
4 = 0 (no roation)

Now looking at the MSDN on this topic if I wanted a user to rotate the image by clicking a button i could rotate 90 or 180 or 270. However, If I load the image location and rotation from a DB and the rotation is "2" I want it to roate 180. But using the same code If a user clicks a button (which goes through the options 1-4) and they are on "1" then click it and it goes to 2 i would only want to roate another 90. As at one it's already moved 90 so another 180 would mean it's rotated 270 in total.

For this reason I can not load a image and move it 180, I thought okay if I'm at "1" going to "2" I'll move it back 90 then forward 180 but if a image loads at 4 what does it do? does it go back thinking it's come from 3 or load at 4?
