We have recently upgraded the .dll files to the newest version and after doing so the program ran smoothly except a majority of the UltraLabel's backcolor's were different. Before upgrading, everything was fine. We would rather not have to go through and change the backcolor of every single UltraLabel to transparent and were wondering if there was a way to change the UltraLabel's default backcolor from empty to transparent, or another way of doing something similar so that the label's automatically match their background.
Thanks.
Thanks very much for the reply Mike! I will continue to investigate using your suggestions.

This is not true. BackColor is a property on Control. So it may be hidden from the designer, but it still exists and you can still set it and it should still work.
In fact, when you set the Appearance.BackColor to Transparent, internally the control sets it's own BackColor to transparent.
I'm not sure why the default functionality would have changed. That doesn't make sense to me. Perhaps it was changed as the result of some other bug, but that seems odd to me. In any case, if you had code that was setting the label BackColor to Transparent, then that code should still be there and should still work unless you removed it.
Hi,
The behavior of the control has not changed as far as I know. If it did change, it may be a bug. We try very hard not to change existing behavior unless the existing behavior was clearly a bug.
But it's hard to guess what's happening here since your description doesn't have any details. What color was the label before and what color is it now? What version are you using?
