Visual C# Windows Form Background

Hi,

I want to scale an image in the background of a visual c# form. There isn't
an option in the parameter list and I wondered if there is a straightforward
way of doing it?

Thanks

Drag a PictureBox on the form, set it's docking to Full and set your image.
You can set the .SizeMode property to one of the enumerated values, and
guessing from what you are asking I think you'll want AutoSize.

HTH,

Bill
