PictureBox transparency.

Good morning.

I read some of the discussions about how to make a picture box transparent, but I still find it hard to understand. I'm busy with a windows forms project that requires me to simulate a virtual LCD display. My idea was to use a few picture boxes on top of each other and make them transparent so that the current picture selected can be displayed over the others. I hope this explanation helps. Any help would be highly appreciated.

Regards.

Hi,

This post may help. You can't actually make a picture box transparent as it's not supported.

Thanx for the reply.

I actually found that hiding and showing different picture boxes helped for my application. Showing the appropriate picture box and hiding the rest works just fine..' the post you recommended also helped so thanx for that too.'
