Transparent Label Over Panel?

[oXiDe]

Hi,

I'm trying to make a label control transparent over a Panel control.

However by setting the background colour of the label to Transparent, it actually sees right through to the form itself, not the panel as intended.

As an example we use a panel with a background as white, we make the label transparent, however it gets the form’s colour as blue.

However, we are using a custom panel control and need the label to be transparent over the panel and not see the forms background.

Is this possible?

Thank you.

Is the label in the form's control collection or the panel's control collection?

I would assume Form? lol

Assuming doesn't answer the question though. You should probably check.
