Hi I have a picture box onto which I let the user draw rectangle regions over a loaded picture. These regions are drawn using the rubberband method and a collection to store their co-ordinates and color etc of each region object created.

Is is possible to some how make the fill style of each region object to be translucent so that the picture can still remain visible through the region.

I've been looking at using alpha blending but it only seems to work on actual objects standard in vb, such as the form object etc.

If some one could point me in the right direction that would be great :)
