UREGENT: Transparent background labels

[Mustafa Rabie]

hi all i am wirting an application, that has a picture box as a back ground,
and i want to add a Text Label on top of the picture box but it always shows
that background type even if i set label1.backcolor =
SystemColors.Transparent in the page_load function

thanks

Use Google to search the archives and you'll find this has been covered
extensively. The Cliffs Notes version is that you can't do a transparent
background label. You *can* override OnPaint and draw your text right onto
the image however.
