How to resize the background image of a form
Dear Experts,
I have put a background image on a borderless form.
And wrote code to move and resize the form.
Everyting works great.
But when I resize the form the background image
doesn't resize too. In picture1 you see a borderless
form that hasn't resized yet. And picture 2 you see
what happens when you resize the form.
What can I fix this.?
Who knows the answer and is willing to help me?
Greetings,

Sadly that's the effect when you stretch a bitmap.
If you just want to mimic a titlebar with the darker area at top you could put a panel there and give it the the color you want. Is that an option?

What has traditionally been done is to make the background image a slice that is tall enough to cover any height that you want and then let it repeat in the x-direction.
