>I'd like to add a logo as a background image on my MDI Parent form. If I use the BackgroundImage property - the image is tiled to fill the entire form. What is the best approach to add an background image to the middle of an MDI Parent form (i.e. so that it doesn't fill the entire screen?)
You can do a little more work and just reassign the background image upon resize and do your own manipulation of the image in memory. Simply keep creating a new bitmap in memory that is of the background color you want, then copy the bitmap you want to show to the center of your new bitmap then assign the property.
That should do it for you. Just remember what it was like before they had a MDI background property. Sometimes taking a step back lets you take a step forward.
Enjoy!
