Hi Ce, Thanks for your help.
It is working fine. Now i could able to display my application with transparancy support. But is there any way to add this into gtkrc file. I mean some thing like alpha =0.6 so that for all the applications the alpha value will be 0.6. and all the applications will be transparent. so that explicitly we need not to supply the alpha value programmatically. I try to put alpha = 0.6 in my gtkrc file inside style "default" structure. But it is not working. If you can provide me some input inthis regard it will be helpful.
