I've been working on a card/XML generator for a TCG i am building. I built it in c# and then relised that the labels did not support transparent backgrounds. I know that WPF does a lot of amazing things that standard c# does not. I was wondering if it supported true transparency? I tried to check google but nothing answered my question that i could fine it was mainly tutorials for WPF that did not answer my question. I thought about drawing everything in GDI+ with c# but if WPF supports transparency I can just use that and build in some of the cool effects that I have seen for it.


Edit: After skimming through a couple books I found out that WPF is based on directX instead of windows forms. Knowing this I assume that it will support True transparency. I need to perform a few test to make sure thou. I will post again when I find out for sure in case any one else has this question.

Edit 2: Yep it supports true transparency! :w00t:
