transparent label

[David222]

I'm new to .net so please bare with...

I want to make a transparent lebel on an X (which is on a pictrue on my form). This will allow the user to click it and close the form.
How do I make the label transparent or is there a better way?

Someone has an example of this, I believe at Planet Source. you might check it out.

Just draw the text directly to the form in its Paint event.

I believe you can also display your picture in a panel instead of a picturebox. Then setting the label's or button's backcolor to transparent will accomplish the same thing.
