Ok.
As horrible as it may seem, try creating a panel, filling the background
using the Graphics class with the designated colour and opacity, overlaying
this of the image, and tracking the mouse co-ordinates to move the control.
If this doesn't work, try using a picturebox and draw the background how you
would like to see it, and again, track the mouse co-ordinates to move the
control.
Alternatively, you could do the nice thing and look at the ControlPaint
class!

news:un**************@TK2MSFTNGP15.phx.gbl... Can someone point me to an example or post some code on how to allow a
user to draw a rectangle on top of an image and retrieve the coordinates
and dimensions of it. They will also need to be able to move it around on the picture and delete it.
Thanks
