Hello,

I 'd like to know how can I do a label with background transparent that is shown above a PictureBox.

Thank you!

Hi Lirulis,

The only way I know to do this is registering a handler for the PictureBox's Paint event, then use the GDI to draw your text on top of the picture when it is painted.  Your handler will look something like this:

        private void imgMap_Paint(object sender, PaintEventArgs e)

and you'll want to create the appropriate font and brush, then call e.Graphics.DrawString().

Hope this helps,

----Scott.

 Thank you very much!

Use this class:

public class TransparentLabel : Control

set

bPaintOnce = true;

this.Parent.Invalidate(this.Bounds);

this.Visible = true;

else

Graphics g = e.Graphics;

SolidBrush brush = new SolidBrush(this.ForeColor);

else

get

set

base.Text = value;

else
