Problem description:
It is from a suggestion ticket: https://devdiv.visualstudio.com/DevDiv/_workitems/edit/1469120
I have a PictureBox filled with a .png image (image with Transparent background) and I place this PictureBox over a ListBox and the result is not what I expected. The PictureBox still shows it’s own background or the Forms’s background, it doesn’t allow me to see through the PictureBox, since my image has a transparent background.

Expected behavior: The PictureBox should allow customer to see through the PictureBox, since the image has a transparent background.
Minimal repro:
- Create a winforms .net core project with a pictureBox control added.
- Click the "Choose Image.." link in SmartTag of PictureBox to add a transparent image to it.
- Add a ListBox to the form designer, then put PictureBox over this ListBox.
- Build and run this project.
