The flowchart control throws an exception when trying to set its backcolor to transparent.  Is there away around this???

Cheers.

Hi,

It is the base Control class that throws the exception. The BackColor article in MSDN states: "The BackColor property does not support transparent colors unless the SupportsTransparentBackColor value of System.Windows.Forms.ControlStyles is set to true." So you must use the Control.SetStyle method to enable the SupportsTransparentBackColor bit.

SetStyle is a protected method in Control, so you will have to define a class that inherits FlowChart to get access to the method.

We've never tried that, so I cannot guarantee it will work...
