Tranparent Controls

Question

Hi I'm designing a windows form which has a background. I'd like to know how to create a radiobutton that didn't have a background color i.e. that was transparent. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks in advance. Renan Mendes

The discussion thread contained the code for over-riding the custom control. I haven't tried it out myself but it seems it should work for Compact framework also. Per the compact framework documentation you can draw the control by overriding the OnPaint method. Good luck!

Just one thing: I'm using the compact framework 2.0...

Thank you for answering. What I'm actually looking for is what the guy said he did and looked great i.e. override the OnPaint method so that I have a transparent control with non-transparent backgrounds. Do you know how to do that? Thanks again.
