Solution 1
Try:
int opacity = 128; // 50% opaque (0 = invisible, 255 = fully opaque)
Graphics graphics = Graphics.FromImage(image);
graphics.DrawString("This is a watermark",
new Font("Arial", 40),
new SolidBrush(Color.FromArgb(opacity, Color.Red)),
0,
0);

Is it possible to specify the opacity of text written using the
Graphics.DrawString
method?I'm doing something like this, but would like my text to be semi-transparent if it is possible.
Currently I'm doing this:
Graphics graphics = Graphics.FromImage(image); graphics.DrawString("This is a watermark", new Font("Arial", 40), new SolidBrush(Color.Red), 0, 0);
