Transparency problem drawing bitmap

[David Hoffer]

I am creating a custom user control and I am having problems with setting
the transparent color of the bitmap. Here is my code...

protected override void OnPaint( PaintEventArgs e )

{

System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageAttributes imageAttributes = new
System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageAttributes();

imageAttributes.SetColorKey(Color.FromArgb(231, 231, 231),
Color.FromArgb(231, 231, 231), ColorAdjustType.Bitmap);

Point ulCorner1 = new Point(0, 0);

Point urCorner1 = new Point(GetBitmapSize().Width, 0);

Point llCorner1 = new Point(0, GetBitmapSize().Height);

Point[] destPara1 = {ulCorner1, urCorner1, llCorner1};

Rectangle srcRect = new Rectangle( 0, 0, GetBitmapSize().Width,
GetBitmapSize().Height);

e.Graphics.SmoothingMode = SmoothingMode.HighQuality;

e.Graphics.InterpolationMode = InterpolationMode.HighQualityBicubic;

e.Graphics.PixelOffsetMode = PixelOffsetMode.HighQuality;

e.Graphics.DrawImage(m_SelectedImage, destPara1, srcRect,
GraphicsUnit.Pixel, imageAttributes);

}

I want the specified RGB color (231, 231, 231) to be transparent, but it
isn't. What am I doing wrong? I thought imageAttributes.SetColorKey() was
supposed to do this.

Hi David,
Your code works for me. Are you sure about the rgb components of the color
you want to make transparent.
Do you have such a color in your image.
