Imports System.Drawing
Imports System.Drawing.Drawing2D  
Imports Infragistics.Win

Protected Overrides Sub DrawBackColor(ByRef drawParams As UIElementDrawParams)
      
		' First Draw background.
       MyBase.DrawBackColor(drawParams)

		' Draw a hatch pattern over the control.
       Dim brush As HatchBrush = New HatchBrush(HatchStyle.Percent50, Color.White, Color.Transparent)

       drawParams.Graphics.FillRectangle(brush, drawParams.InvalidRect)
       brush.Dispose()

   End Sub
