B4J Question possible to make main form transparent?

[tufanv]

Hello,

Is it possible to make the main application windows 0.7 transparent for example so that when the app is run , user will see little bit of the desktop behind the app. ?

Thanks

Only if you use the TRANSPARENT form style.

I couldnt achieve this. I Used :

MainForm.SetFormStyle("TRANSPARENT")

and in the designer i have selected black color with 0.5 alpha but it is always not transparent. What am i missing here. Also setting the formstyle transparent , it removes windows decorations. Will it have close minimize buttons at mac OS ? I need those with transparency at mac OS

Use my project as a template for this effect.

FadderPane has alpha set to it. Just delete the unnecessary files and in the code delete the MainPane related stuff

Dear BeneBarros, what's that Face regonition all about? Is there a library available for B4J? Cableguy is right, a Transparent form will do the trick. I learned it from him myself so there's a 100% guarantee that it works

I'll make a small sample of how I make the transparency and post here.
About facial recognition is an ongoing development using "Neural Face Recognizer" ... and capture by mobile.
If it works ok ... I'll post it on the forum.

May I ask how you did the form design so nice, is that publically available?
