If color is used, this color will be 100% transparent. 100% transparent parts are also transparent to mouse messages. Use opacity 255 to apply only color.

Transparent hWnd 250 0x8D8D8E

so color is not the key.

Add WS_EX_TRANSPARENT. See how OnScreenDisplay does it.

wow !

dev trigger is #ALh2 (alt+left on caption)

Code:

Copy      Help

int h=win(mouse)
ont h
SetWinStyle h WS_EX_TRANSPARENT 0|4
WinTransparent(h -90)


5
ont- h
SetWinStyle h WS_EX_TRANSPARENT 2|4
WinTransparent(h -90)

next step is to show a dynamic toolbar (one icon with tooltip of the trans window)
so that one restore the window.
the toolbar will appear where the action started (in my case close button).
