private Image SetImageOpacity(Image image, float opacity)
{
try
{
//create a Bitmap the size of the image provided
Bitmap bmp = new Bitmap(image.Width, image.Height);
//create a graphics object from the image
using (Graphics gfx = Graphics.FromImage(bmp))
{
//create a color matrix object
ColorMatrix matrix = new ColorMatrix();
//set the opacity
matrix.Matrix33 = opacity;
//create image attributes
ImageAttributes attributes = new ImageAttributes();
//set the color(opacity) of the image
attributes.SetColorMatrix(matrix, ColorMatrixFlag.Default, ColorAdjustType.Bitmap);
//now draw the image
gfx.DrawImage(image
, new Rectangle(0
, 0
, bmp.Width
, bmp.Height
)
, 0
, 0
, image.Width
, image.Height
, GraphicsUnit.Pixel
, attributes
);
}
return bmp;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
return null;
}
}
My example how use this method:
try
{
float opacity = (float) trackBar1.Value / 100;
panel1.BackgroundImageLayout = ImageLayout.Center;
panel1.BackgroundImage = SetImageOpacity(myBitmap, opacity);
}
catch (Exception exception)
{
MessageBox.Show($@"Cannot to set opacity of picture. Error message: {exception.Message}");
}
Notice that opacity is float and it can be between 0 to 1, everything bigger then 1 will have no impact. Example in Winforms you can download from here.

Start new Windows Forms Application, for example, name it MyInheritance.
In solution explorer right clink on MyInheritance, like on picture:
Then, in project properties under Output type choose Console Application like on picture:
Save it. Put a button on a form (add form if it doesn't exist), build project.
Then, to test it, go to the File -> Add -> New project... Then choose Windows Forms Application, in the solution explorer right click on References, go to the project tab and choose MyInheritance, then right click on this new project -> Add -> New item ->Windows Forms -> Inherited Form -> Ok and this is it.
If you want to change a component in your inhertited form, then choose property Modifiers from MyInheritance and change it to Public.

If you are receiving error like in the title, then you have to change your target framework, because console application is targeted to .Net Framework 4 Client Profile by default.
Right click on the project, and then properties:

and then change target framework to .NET Framework 4:
