Alpha Blending and Background Images

  • Apr 01, 2018

The Grid Control provides control over alpha blending, which allows you to give visual elements (rows, column headers, group panel, empty area, etc.) various degrees of transparency.

To implement alpha blending, assign a background image to the control using the BackgroundImage property. Then customize the background colors of the control’s visual elements, to allow the image to be seen through the elements.
