Transparent EditControl

Hi. Is the EditControl capable of rendering text without a solid or gradient background?

I tried setting both BackColor to Color.Transparent and BackgroundColor to a Color.Transparent BrushInfo, and even tried some things in a derived class, but without success.

I just want to put some nice formatting on some readonly text, so for now I can use one of the transparent RichTextBox hacks, eg http://www.codeproject.com/KB/edit/TransparentTextBox.aspx.

Hi Chris,

Thank you for your interest in Syncfusion Products.

Yes. It is possible to rendering the text without a solid or gradient background.
Could you please set the Trasparent to Backcolor and Background to None in Design view.

Please refer the screen shot.
