Transparent Label...

[Daniel]

Hi,

Sorry to repost this again... I really ran out of idea and resources to
figure out how to make this work... Hope someone will help. Thanks

I've tried the transparent for backcolor, but it doesn't work.
The below is the coding to draw the gradient. Could that be other way of
writing?
System.Drawing.Drawing2D.LinearGradientBrush brush = new
System.Drawing.Drawing2D.LinearGradientBrush(new
System.Drawing.RectangleF(0,0, this.Width, this.Height), Color.Blue,
Color.SkyBlue, System.Drawing.Drawing2D.LinearGradientMode.Vertical);

graphics g = this.CreateGraphics();

g.FillRectangle(brush, new RectangleF(0,0,this.Width, this.Height));

g.Dispose();


Thank you.


Regards,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,

Set the label's BackGroundColor = Color.Transparent

If you use ClipRectangle for your gradient calculation the gradient for

the label will be different than the background.
