Title: Automatic background color
Post by: Jeff Titherington on October 08, 2010, 11:29:51 AM
When I create a new label control on a form, it would be cool if it automatically used the same the background color as the form.

You could try setting the "BackStyle" property to "Transparent". From then on if you copy/paste that control to other places on the form then it will automatically have that style set. By default, the BackStyle is set to "Opaque".

The only "problem" with using Transparent is that it is not really "transparent" if you use a graphic for your Form background.
