Just wondering if anything came of the 'transparent panel' discussion ?
ie - does such a beast exist for gtk2 as yet (under Lazarus naturally)
What transparency do you need?
Overlapping controls - a control below the panel should be visible
OR
Seamless - when removing the frame the background should fit the
background of its parent
AFAIK the first is not doable, the second just needs a proper background
theme drawing function.

My personal use (this instance anyway), would be to allow an external
app below my Lazarus app (eg a browser) to be seen 'thru' the
transparent panel. - The tricky part would be to then toggle the ext app
to be on top / below my app (when called by myself with button press).
This would be my workaround to not having a 'TWebBrowser' :)
Obviously a hack, but I really do need to incorporate a Java capable
browser into my app, and this would suffice for now.
Any other suggestions appreciated as well
Thanks - SteveG
