I want to change the opacity of a picture box

1 New Member
I have two picture boxes on my form. One on top of the other. The top most picture box's movement is restricted within the picture box below making it look like the top most picture box is contained in it.

The picture box at the bottom is use be my web cam to display the image video preview.

I want to be able to use the top most picture box as a cropper. I that case it has to be transparent to enable the user see through to the image he/she is cropping on the second picture box.

I understand i have to use GDI+. I have also tried a number of solutions, but none really works for me.

please can someone help me..........\\


It must not be a picture box. i just want a control dat has height and width (more like a panel or picture box). I want the user to see through the semi transparent control to the picture box with the video.

Hi everyone, I have a simple timer which decreases the Opacity from 1.0 to 0.0 and back again. The problem I have is, when it changes from 1.0 to 0.99, the whole form flickers completely before the smooth fading out. It never does it from 0.0 to 0.1, only from 1.0 to 0.99. Anyone seen this before?

Hello Everyone, I have been gettting great feedback from microsoft.public.vc.language group but after doing more searching I think my post should be directed to this group.

I have a template in Word 2003 with several paragraphs of text and a picture in the upper-right corner. The pic has a fixed position and size, which must not change. From Access, I need to update the template, replacing several fields with data from the db, and replace the picture with a path and filename stored in the db. But most importantly, the size and place of the picture cannot change. It would seem to me that if you insert a...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
