GeneralTransparencyKey not working correctly Pin

Asked that question before, but didn't get an answer to my question.


My problem is the following:
I'd like to make my standard Form completely transparent. To do that I set TransparencyKey property to BackColor:

private void Form1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
this.TransparencyKey = this.BackColor;
}

This way the form in fact becomes transparent, but when it is shown, there is a short black flicker until the background gets transparent. A way I figuered out to get rid of that is to set the BackColor to pure black, too:

this.BackColor = Color.Black;

But this is no satisfying solution. To figure out what was going on I replaced the OnPaintBackground function with my own one, which simply does nothing:

protected override void OnPaintBackground(PaintEventArgs e)
{
//empty
}

The result is a black background. This background doesn't appear when BackColor is set to black as mentioned above. Does this happen on your machines, too?

Thanks,
3Dizard
