Hello,
is there a way to create transparent windows with VE or Java in general?
(to make windows with arbitrary shapes as often seen in modern windows
apps? E.g. round edges, etc.
Cheers,
Arik

Arik,
If you are still searching for an answer, I can show you how to do this
using JNI on a Win2K/XP platform. I do not have enough experience with
Linux or Solaris to address those platforms... yet.
Take care,
Tony

Not currently. That requires skins support and I don't know anything
about that.

It looks like an API to prevent the window decorations (title bar, close
buttons, etc) from being added to a Frame was added in 1.4 (see
setUndecorated on java.awt.Frame) but in my quick look through the API I
don't see any way to make a frame transparent. I'd suggest a visit to
google to see if anyone's been able to do this with Swing/AWT. I know
this sort of thing is possible with SWT because I've seen it done... but
I don't know how ;)
Good luck,
- Jeff
