Guest Beefteck Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Hey autoit members I was thinking adding another part to my program, i was working on the new interface for the last 3 days and have it almost complete BUT is it possible to get the background (the gray part of the window unless you had it colored) to be transparent so the buttons and test would look like they are on the desktop. I will be back this afternoon and thanx for the great help! -Beefteck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Kurt Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Hey Beefteck, I'm not sure if this will help you, but you may be able to study this script.Function: Hold SHIFT+CTRL+{the numbers 1-10} to set the transparency of ANY window.For $i = 0 To 10 HotKeySet("+^" & $i,"_trans") Next While 1 Sleep(10) WEnd Func _trans() If StringTrimLeft(@HotKeyPressed, 2) = "0" Then $x = 9 Else $x = StringTrimLeft(@HotKeyPressed, 2) - 1 EndIf WinSetTrans("", "", 255 / 9 * $x) EndFuncHopefully this helped!Kurt Awaiting Diablo III..

Richard Robertson Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 No, he wants a see-through window. You have to edit the region of the window to prevent it from drawing or processing messages for those pieces. It is rather complicated and I'm not sure how well it will work in AutoIt. You might be better off putting controls on the desktop directly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
