Hello All.

I am trying to create a usercontrol that has a picturebox on it.

On top of the picturebox I would like to create a separate transparent usercontrol on which I can draw graphics. The problem is that when I create the "upper layer" usercontrol and set it's backstyle to "transparent", the underlying picture can be viewed, but none of the graphics that I draw on the upper layer foreground are visible.

It appears that setting the backstyle to opaque is the only way to see my drawn graphics - but this defeats the purpose because the underlying picture can no longer be viewed.

Is there a way to create a usercontrol that has a transparent background, yet I can draw on the foreground and have the underlying picture show through?

Thanks, BTT
