title: Vba - Set transparent color or direct hex value of label backcolor?
body: <p>I want to insert a label into a PowerPoint presentation. But I don't want any background on there, or, have the background color be the same as the what is underneath. </p>
  
  <p>I've found that 082F68 is the hex code I want. The RGB code is: 8, 47, 104
  This color is supposed to be bluish, but when I insert it, it just gets brown. 
  I really don't want that. I also tried setting label.backcolor to Color.Transparent. But that isn't recognized. Neither is System.Drawing.Color.Transparent either. It just says it needs an object reference. </p>
  
  <p>But really, isn't it possible to use direct hex values for label backgrounds?</p>
