I have a little JWindow with a logo on it that users can drag stuff to.
I develop my application mainly on OS X. To get a transparent window i use
setBackground(new Color(0,0,0,0));
On a mac this works beautifully but I can’t get the same effect on windows.
Is there any way to get a transparent window without using 1.6 specific features.
I need 1.5 compatibility.
As of 1.5 Java does not support transparent windows.
This feature is introduced as part of 1.6.10 release.
See AWTUtilities class for more details.
