Property Value

The style can specify layers of pictures. When displayed, the first layer consists of a foreground picture, next comes the content, such as text and a picture, then comes the background picture, and finally, the background of the object, which displays the background color.

Set this property to specify the picture for the content layer.

For more information, see the Image class in the Microsoft .NET Framework Reference.

Set the ForegroundImage property to specify the foreground picture layer. Set the BackgroundImage property to specify the background picture layer.

Specify the alignment for the contents in a control using the AlignHorz and AlignVert properties.

You can work with the positioning of the picture by setting the MarginTop, MarginBottom, MarginLeft, and MarginRight properties. These properties leave space between the edge of the picture and the edges of the object.

You can also set the PictureMargin property to specify the margin to use between the picture and the text in the object.

Specify the orientation of the picture by setting the PictureOrientation property.

You can use the various pictures' transparency colors feature to display portions of the underlying content and other pictures in the object. For the picture layer, set the PictureTransparencyColor property.
