Hi All
I have a Picturebox transparency problem.
What I am trying to do is place picturebox1 over picturebox2 which is larger and set the picturebox1 backcolor transparent in order to view what is on picturebox2 immediately below.
I have set picturebox1.backcolor = transparent and picturebox1.Parent = Picturebox2. This works to a degree but the problem is picturebox1 shows the whole of picturebox2 (or at least what it can in the smaller area) where as what I really want is just the area of picturebox2 immediately below picturebox1, if this makes sense!
Any ideas on this will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Zeppo
