BackStyle Property (UserControl Object)
See Also Example Applies To
Returns or sets a value indicating the type of the controls background.
Syntax
object**.BackStyle** [= enum]
The BackStyle property syntax has these parts:
| Part | Description |
| object | An object expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list. |
| enum | An enumerated value that determines how the background of the control will be displayed, as described in Settings. |
Settings
The settings for enum are:
| Setting | Description |
| 1-Opaque | (Default) Opaque background. All mouse events are received by the control. |
| 2-Invisible | Applies only when the Windowless property is set to True. Otherwise the behavior is the same as with a Transparent BackStyle. |
Remarks
When enum is set to 2, the appearance and behavior of controls with the Windowless property set to True are based on the settings of the MaskPicture, MaskColor, HitBehavior, and ClipBehavior properties.
