c# usercontrol transparency

it's possible to have a usercontrol over my form and set a transparency percentage? I Wish have the background of the usercontrol to 70% transparent, but the buttons and the rest of the components to 100%

it's possible? thanks

Solution

  • Try adding the following to the control's constructor:

    base.CreateParams.ExStyle |= 0x20;            
SetStyle(ControlStyles.SupportsTransparentBackColor, true);

BackColor = Color.FromArgb(0x80,0xFF,0xCC,0x33);
