I have two buttons on a form as per the below:

is it possible to make the gray parts of the button transparent? Or can I make it same colour as the form? I have tried a few properties but not getting much luck.

My alternative option is to use an image control which i am sure will be fine but would prefer button control if possible.

Thanks

Paul

Hello Paul,

I have been investigating into the behavior you are looking to achieve with the appearance of the UltraButton, and I would recommend that you take a look at the attached sample project where I have created an UltraButton that only shows the Image assigned to its Appearance.ImageBackground property.

The main things to take away from the sample project are in the code-behind of Form1, and that the ButtonStyle is set to FlatBorderless and the UseOsThemes property is set to false.

I hope this helps you. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns on this matter.
