Title: Window Transparency
Post by: MrMuffins on December 26, 2011, 08:51:38 am

Hello

Tried searching, not much found.

Question: Does sfml 1-6 have a way/support to do window transparent images?
Or, 'window skinning' ?

I made a nice window frame + buttons for the top, thought I could handle everything code-wise by displaying an empty window frame and just making the size silently bigger then the actual size to fit the frame.

However the edges where the transparency would be, is all black.

So is this possible or should I just make it a square window?
Thanks.

SFML doesn't support this kind of stuff.

That's unfortunate. :(

Well, nothing wrong with a boxed window now is there? ;)
