Hi,
Add this to the new procedure of your usercontrol to make it support
transparent background.
Me.SetStyle(Con trolStyles.Supp ortsTransparent BackColor, True)

No it can't..
Make a UserControl with a transparent background and a round object. Now add
that control to a form overtop of an already existing control. The
UserControl will make a rectangle covering the control beneath it.
Give it a try!

Hi,
A control with a transparent background will take the color of its
parent. Make sure you set the transparent background controls parent to the
control you want to see. The controls parent is the form by default.

If you want to see/interact with the control beneath the usercontrol, then
make the usercontrol shaped, rather than transparent, by setting its region.

Thanks!
I didn't know this, but it still doesn't help if the control spans across
two objects.
All I want to know is if Microsoft is going to fix this bug in VB2004 or
not. (Yes, it's a bug)

whether the image is loaded dynamically or at design time makes no
difference. If it was going to look right on a transparent background then
it quite obviously has transparent pixels. Use the OnPaint() subroutine to
create a region from the non transparent pixels of the image and apply it to
the usercontrol.

I understand that MS made their controls annoyingly difficult to modify (for
example transparency on a listbox, tab control, treeview etc) to ensure they
didn't torpedo the third party control library industry (or is this just an
excuse to fob us off with controls that are difficult to extend?).
Therefore could anyone tell me of a company that offers decent transparent
controls?
