C# Windows Form Application Transparent button

Question

I'm new to C#. I'd like to create an invisible button, but they are click-able in C# windows form application. Is there a way? I tried BackColor to Transparent, but that does not change the fact that it is transparent

Answer 1

buttonLink.FlatStyle = FlatStyle.Flat; 
buttonLink.BackColor = Color.Transparent;
buttonLink.FlatAppearance.MouseDownBackColor = Color.Transparent;
buttonLink.FlatAppearance.MouseOverBackColor = Color.Transparent;

Answer 2

Its simple try this.

Click the button that you want to make transparent. Select FlatStyle from Properties and set it to popup Now change the BackColor property to Transparent.

This will make the button transparent.

However if you want to make it transparent over a PictureBox this method wont work..

It works only on normal backgrounds and background images. Hope it works....
