Each control has class-type Gradient property. With this class you can choose colors, angle and corner rounding values for each of gradient control. Rounding values can be different for each corner, so you can get any form of gradient area. Angle property allows you to choose any angle of gradient, so you can create some pseudo 3D effects if you need it. Also you can turn off the default painting (like text paint in the Label or frame and text painting in the GroupBox) with DefaultPaint property. If Enabled is False all the gradient effects are disabled and control is returned back to the defaul view. Demo project shows some examples of controls using and allows you to play with Gradient's properties. See the screenshot of the demo project.

.Net is powerful, but not all-powerful, so sometimes we need to use Win32 API for our .Net applications. It's simple enough with Platform Invoke if you have Win32 skill, but we do not always have time to dig the ancient documentation, declare the special types that are compatible with Win32, find the values of the Win32's constants and so on. Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, components and controls that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native. Net classes.
