LabVIEW .net container not accepting transparent background of the control

[SQUARELAB]

Hello,

I am trying to build a control using Visual Studio C#. I have created a Windows Form Control Library (.NET Framework) and simply dropped a button. Here I have set the background color as transparent and created a dll. 

Now if I use this dll into another c# forms application project the background is transparent as I need.

And, If I use this same dll in LabVIEW by using .net container I am not getting a transparent background. Instead, it is showing some default grey color.

Even I am setting the background color to transparent by setting its properties It is accepting all other colors except transparent.

Please suggest if I am still missing something to update. I am attaching the visual studio code and labview vi.

Thanks.

Perhaps you need to activate first the transparency of the the front panel.

Did you try painting the .NET container background transparent, from LabVIEW?

If I remember correctly, you'll never have a transparent .NET container because it actually a separate window that sits in front of all LV windows.  My technical explanation may be incomplete, but I think that's basically correct...
