Ok maybe I didnt make myself as clear as I could in the first place... I have a component in a container. My component just happens to have a transparent area in it, yes most likely rectangular with rounded corners.
The component may move around in the container and as it does so it may pass over other components in that container, or background, graphics or absolutely anything and everything there could possibly be in a container. I want that background content to appear blurred when it is viewed through that transparent area of my component in the foreground. It could even be that a component is half covered by the transparent area and half not covered, only the part covered would be blurred. Currently I can fade those items in the background by filling the transparent background area of my component with an alpha'd color, so any controls behind it are partially obscured, but they are not distorted/blurred... What I want to do is make then look blurred... --- In [email protected], DreamCode <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > so there will most likely be stuff moving above the blurred area too? > > > > On Dec 4, 2007 4:52 AM, reflexactions <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Not static... yes > > > > Stuff moving around ... yes. > > > > Fixed size.. no > > > > Rectangular with rounded corners... most likely > > > > Its all fairly dynamic... > > > > --- In [email protected] <flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com>, > > DreamCode <dreamcode@> wrote: > > > > > > Can you give more details... is it static content or will you have > > stuff > > > moving in and out of the blur behind it?
