Custom control transparency

[shreekar]

Hi I am creating a custom control for marquee style scrolling. I have sub classed from label. I have managed the scrolling - speed etc. My problem is the transparency of the label. I have used Me.SetStyle(ControlStyles.SupportsTransparentBackColor, True) Me.BackColor = Color.Transparent in Sub New of the control However, the text still seems to sit on top of all controls on the form. I even tried SendToBack, with no success. Any ideas?:confused:
