I've got multiple controls on a win forms page - and I have a panel that I
want the user to be able to click on to have something happen which I have
put on top of some of the control. I make the panel transparent but it
doesn't show what's behind it, it shows the form background.
Is there anyway to have something transparent so it shows what's behind it,
not the form?
What I'm really trying to do is have a shockwave or browser control be able
to be clicked and something happen. I don't want the normal clicking like on
a web site to happen.
Any suggestions?
TIA - Jeff.

Transparency works with respect to the parent. It doesn't work as you might
imagine it would, where .NET actually figures out the z order of everything,
and displays objects based on that.
Since the panel's parent is the form, it just shows the form

Thanks for the info. But that article appears to work only with static
images/items. I need to make a panel that is transparent to a web
browser/shockwave file that can be changing.

Im trying to place an image on my form, which is transparent in parts like
an icon. My page refuses to display the transparent areas in the color of
the page background but keeps replacing it with white, causing the image to
sit in a white square.
Is there something I'm missing here like a property that needs to be set?
I've tried Icons, PNG file with transparency and Bitmap with transparency,
none seem to work.

Is it possible to set the background of a usercontrol as transparent?
I tried setting the background image of the usercontrol to a transparent
GIF, but that caused MAJOR problems.
I'm making some controls that aren't rectangular and it won't be pretty if I
end up with a grey rectangle behind each one.

Is there no way to make a label or link label transparent in vb.net?
This is a real pain on about screens with nice graphics where you want your
text backgroup to be transparent.
I can drawstring most of it--shouldn't have to.
But how to do the linklabel I don't know--other than using the control.
Ideas? solutions?

Hi, I created a picturebox with a map as an image. I want to make
certain areas on the map clickable hotspots and the way I'm trying to
do this is to create a transparent label with a different cursor (hand)
and then I code the click_event for that label. However, I cannot make
the label transparent, even if I choose the Transparent option for the
attribute for the background color of the label. Any ideas or
suggestions?
Thanks

Making thumbnail images isn't all that hard, for the most
part. There is lots of shrink-wrapped code out there you
can download and/or munge from. But nothing I've yet
seen does the right thing with transparent background gifs.
If you (I) try to work with ImageCreateFromGif($this->path);
you end up with a black background.
Does anybody know how to make transparent background
gif thumbnails? Or maybe how to at least turn the background
