So I'm looking at OS X's increasingly popular transparent panels as
described in:
<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/AppleHIGuidelines/XHIGWindows/chapter_18_section_6.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/20000961-TPXREF17>
And I'm thinking, man, I would love to have rounded corners on resizable
palettes.
Then it hits me: could there be some way to layer graphics with
different blendLevels and different ink effects so that I could define
the visible window region with one graphic and have everything outside
of it transparent with another graphic?
So I started to play with various combinations, and the multiplicity of
possible options made my head explode.
Anyone know a way to do this?
Am I dreaming?
Sure, I know the corners would still not pass clicks through, but I'm
okay with those few pixels if I could at least get the look right.
Even more interesting, if such a magic combo could be found we could
effectively punch visual holes in our windows, making resizable frames
around anything underneath.
Should I just make a request to use graphics as window shapes and move on?
