Well, i have a problem and i think you guys maybe can help me.

Every time i try to create a form bordless with a image, the image border will always stay weird, something like a "No Anti-Aliasing" thinging.

To make this i only set the background image to this png image( http://s12.postimage.org/ufpe2nt6j/test.png ), set the BackColor and the TransparencyKey to the color Lime and i set the FormBorderStyle to "None".

Maybe i'm doing something wrong, i don't know, so i hope you guys can help me.

Thanks.

I dont think there is an easy way to do it..could be wrong :?

Sometimes it can be the quality of the image itself and its not a good idea to stretch the image over the form.

Try buffering the form and then drawing the image onto it:

Code: Select all

    Dim Backi As Bitmap = My.Resources.test
    Private Sub Form1_Paint(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs) Handles MyBase.Paint
        e.Graphics.SmoothingMode = Drawing2D.SmoothingMode.AntiAlias
        e.Graphics.DrawImageUnscaled(New Bitmap(Backi), 0, 0)
    End Sub

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        Me.SetStyle(ControlStyles.DoubleBuffer, True)
        Me.SetStyle(ControlStyles.AllPaintingInWmPaint, True)
        Me.SetStyle(ControlStyles.UserPaint, True)
    End Sub

Makes it a little clearer.

But the problem is that i don't want to have a background, so that image wont work...
