JRowe Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I can get my render to be stuck inside the desktop, but it's still on top of the icons. Is there some way I can render beneath the icons? Might just be tired, but it seems it's a doozy [center]However, like ninjas, cyber warriors operate in silence.AutoIt Chat Engine (+Chatbot) , Link Grammar for AutoIt , Simple Speech RecognitionArtificial Neural Networks UDF , Bayesian Networks UDF , Pattern Matching UDFTransparent PNG GUI Elements , Au3Irrlicht 2Advanced Mouse Events MonitorGrammar Database GeneratorTransitions & Tweening UDFPoker Hand Evaluator[/center] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRowe Posted November 8, 2008 Author Share Posted November 8, 2008 And, the Active Desktop window appears to be just fine. There's some bugginess to work out, but it's working. It's time to kick some compiz ass.

smashly Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 (edited) The way I do it in XP is to activate active desktop, then get the handle to the active desktop window and paint your gui or controls or video on the active desktop window.. Not sure how you do it with vista though.. Edit: I mainly did the above to render video to the desktop under the icons using MCI.. One bug I had was trying to move a desktop icon or accessing the normal desktop context menus after rendering the video on the active desktop. As a work around I used control disable on the video render. (as the rendered video using mci is actually a control) This way I could still use the normal desktop items and access the normal desktop context menus while the video was playing Edited November 8, 2008 by smashly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRowe Posted November 8, 2008 Author Share Posted November 8, 2008 I'm clearing the desktop, then rendering a 3D virtual desktop to the active desktop window. This one's gonna be fun.
