I created a Transparent Layered window with a color key that I use to make the window transparent.
So far it works all fine.
Writing text on it – using GDI+ – works, too…

The problem I encounter is, that the text has a thin border of the colorkey-color around the letters…

What I do in the WM_PAINT is:

1. Clear the drawing area Graphics::Clear(ColorKey);
2. Draw the text on it.

Anyone knows about how to avoid this?

    Try calling Graphics::SetTextRenderingHint(TextRenderingHintSingleBitPerPixelGridFit).
