C# form opacity help

[WolfDeville]

Hallo,

 

I'm working on application and I need to be able to change the opacity of Form1 with the click of a button but everything I've tried doesn't work. I'd like to do this without having to create a new Form if possible.

 

Cheers.

WinForms or WPF?

What are your current attempts? it shouldn't be hard in theory.

The forms Opacity property works fine for me.

public partial class Form1 : Form{    public Form1()    {        InitializeComponent();    }    private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)    {        this.Opacity = 0.5;    }}

I tried making a bool and a while loop in public Form1 that checks the status of the bool but it kept creating heaps of items in the system tray.
