It’s a hack. The window is rectangular and covers the space. when the
WM_PAINT (windows) message comes through, it does a blit based on
what’s underneath. Some message fudgery makes sure mouse clicks etc
get passed through.–

Great. Thanks. Maybe i can get a SDL
application working that way.

Hi, I was thinking for a new renderer I was planning for work, there might
be a way to do this “perfectly” using pbuffer extensions and Windows 2000
layered windows.
I was thinking perhaps if you blit the alpha plane of OpenGL (or an SDL
surface) per frame, you can use that alpha plane as the values for the
layered window. That might slow the FPS down quite a bit for non-static
scenes (i.e. almost everything :))
Is there a big demand for this?
