Generate transparent PNG c#

Question

I have the function below to generate a sample logo. What I want to do is to return a transparent png or gif instead of a white background.

How can I do that?

Answer 1

You can do something like this:

Bitmap bmp = new Bitmap(300, 300);
Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(bmp);

g.Clear(Color.Transparent);
g.FillRectangle(Brushes.Red, 100, 100, 100, 100);

g.Flush();
bmp.Save("test.png", System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Png);
