No, transparency property is not used, the window itself needs to be transparent (i.e. 32-bit window with alpha channel). You'd need to use XQueryTree() (check e.g. the xsnow patch -- it finds the applet windows) and find windows with _HILDON_LIVE_DESKTOP_BACKGROUND > 0 window property on them, and then provide UI for manipulating the property, and perhaps even killing the processes (when _NET_WM_PID is provided by the window). See test-live-bg.c for example code on how to set this property. -Kimmo > > Sivan _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
