Flash and Alpha in windows forms

[Kuba Florczyk]

Hi

I've got a flash.ocx on a form in which i want play a movie, under this
movie i've got a image. Everything is ok, but in flash movie some objects
got alpha <> 100 and thru flash i should see elements from background image.
I know how to set TransparencyKey in form, i know how to set Opacity, but
when i set WMode=transparent it doesn't work - under flash i got white
background.

My question is how to play flash with alpha?!

I see shockwave example and he generate a exe file which got one form and
thru flash i see my desktop :)

Maybe somebody can help me with semi-transparency?

regards

Kuba,

There are some issues with transparency in .NET. I can't remember them
exactly, but I do believe that transparency in controls is not supported.

Also, if the alpha of a color is 100%, then you should not be able to
see through it. When the alpha is zero, you should be able to see through
it.

Hope this helps.
