skinned application

[Guest]

Hi,

I am trying to create a .net windows app with the following properties:

* no windows frame, the app needs to be circular ad partially transparent
* the app can be moved around the screen by clicking and dragging

Anybody have any pointers?

cheers, Roger

www.componentscience.net, look for the ElementsEx library, it has a shaped
form control (and it's free)

It's quite simple to do yourself as well.

Set the form border style to none, and enable transparency on the form.

Check msdn.microsoft.com, there was a recent article on how to do this, and
it is piss easy.

That was very helpful.

I found the article, it's here:

It's as easy as you said it would be. Thank you !!!
