TransparentLabel

[gh]

I have a jpeg image on the winform, that I am using for a background.
When I drop a label on the form the label background is white. How do I
get the label background to be transparent, so the image shows through it?

TIA

Set the parent of the label to be the picturebox the image is on.

Set the label's BackColor to Transparent (in the Web tab of the property
grid when the label's BackColor property is selected), or use the following
code:
Label1.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Transparent;
