    On wxWidgets, I found an interesting message that states:

    Since wxFrame (which is usually the class you use for the main application),
    is derived from wxTopLevelWindow, you can use wxTopLevelWindow::SetTransparent(int alpha) method, where: an alpha value of 0 sets the window to be fully transparent, and a value of 255 sets the window to be fully opaque.

    There’s a demo available here that seems to use this technique (search for Alpha.zip). I was able to compile it with:

    g++ AlphaApp.cpp AlphaMain.cpp GUIDialog.cpp -o alpha `wx-config --libs` `wx-config --cxxflags`
