Question transparent label over real time graph?

[kinecticman]

I'm trying to create a label that displays sensor output readings. These are small labels inside a picturebox that has a real time graph of the sensors. I'm trying to make the labels transparent or semi-transparent in order to see the entire graph. Setting the labels background color property to transparent only gives the labels the same color property of the picturebox not the actual images of the picture box. I have set the label.parent = picturebox1. Anyone have any suggestions

You can draw your string 'label' directly on the Picturebox using the Paint event. Control.Paint Event (System.Windows.Forms)
