resize form bg image

[tom]

Hello,

does anyone know if and how it is possible that
when you use an image as backgroundimage of a form,
this image adjusts itself when the form resizes. Sth.
like 'StretchImage' for a picturebox.

thanx,

Handle the Resize event of the form with code like:

this.BackgroundImage = new Bitmap(this.bitmapBacking, this.Size);

Where bitmapBacking is the original background bitmap. It's better to have a
copy and not just resize the background image because you'll lose quality
the more the image is sized up and down.
