MDI parent background image

Question

I have tried absolutely everything I could get my hand on, and it just won't work ! Has anyone ever solved this problem?

I can put my image in the back, but it works only if the form never tries to be resized (shrinking is OK, growing leaves empty grey space...)

Answer 1

Change the BackgroundImageLayout property to Stretch. This will stretch your image to always fill the backgound space.

Answer 2

Two options:

• Set Background image and change the BackgroundImageLayout property to Stretch (as suggested by Guster_Q)
• Set your image in a imagecontrol and set it docking property to fill
