hi i am writing a small screen video grabber and i would like to have an option there to grab only a particular window. This window may belong to another application, of course. I need to somehow "impact" a particular window for the user, make it bold, change it's shadow color or add some kind of a frame around it - to remind the user that only this particular window is being 'grabbed'. Does WindowServer allow to perform such kind of operations on any level? What APIs should i look at?
Also i am wondering if there is a way to create a "transparent window" - a window, that has a frame and a title bar, but whose insides are transparent - you can click with a mouse button on it and your click will "go" to the other window, that is below this one, and you can see the contents of the window below through this "transparent window". Is there any way? And, if not, maybe you could suggest some other way to let user know what's being grabbed? The system is Snow Leopard (and higher) only Thanks for the answer! _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
