Transparent Label on a Panel with Paint

[Daniel]

Hi,

I use paint event to draw gradient on a Panel.
But how to get the label to be transaparent on a gradient draw Panel?

Thank you.

Hi Daniel,

Set the label's BackGroundColor = Color.Transparent

If you use ClipRectangle for your gradient calculation the gradient for the label will be different than the background.

Hi Morten,

I've tried the transparent for backcolor, but it doesn't work.
The below is the coding to draw the gradient. Could that be other way of
writing?
System.Drawing.Drawing2D.LinearGradientBrush brush = new
System.Drawing.Drawing2D.LinearGradientBrush(new
System.Drawing.RectangleF(0,0, this.Width, this.Height), Color.Blue,
Color.SkyBlue, System.Drawing.Drawing2D.LinearGradientMode.Vertic al);

graphics g = this.CreateGraphics();

g.FillRectangle(brush, new RectangleF(0,0,this.Width, this.Height));

g.Dispose();
Thank you.
Regards,
Daniel
