Transparent images are supported on a virtual flexpendant, but on a real flexpendant the transpareny changes to the color white.
Is there a solution??

Hello,

Just to understand it better,

Do you have an image which is transparent in nature added to pictureBox control
or
An image added to picturebox control whose backcolor has been changed to transparent.

Can you share the screenshots of the application with image on virtual flexpendant and real flexpendant.

Hello,

Transparancy is not handled completely on the desktop as well.

The normal way to handle transparancy on the device is to use an image with a background that has the color Magenta.

The image is then drawn using image attributes. These image attributes will then make the background transparent.

However, in the case with the PictureBox not sure if a solution exists, since its implementation uses a standard PictureBox control to draw the image.

Thanks,

The compact framework only supports color-key transparency, not alpha blending. What format is your image?

The image format is *.png

Try converting the image to a transparent gif, I think it might work better.
