semi-transparent form but opaque Controls in C#

by

You can use a hatch brush with a certain percentage, for example:

    using System.Drawing.Drawing2D;

    private void Form1_Paint(object sender, PaintEventArgs e)
    {
        var hb = new HatchBrush(HatchStyle.Percent50, this.TransparencyKey);

        e.Graphics.FillRectangle(hb,this.DisplayRectangle);
    }
