Is it possible to get a fully transparent window in Pygame (see the desktop through it)? I’ve found how to create a window without a frame, but there doesn’t seem to be any obvious way to make it transparent.
I’d be willing to tie into system-specific technology/frameworks as long as there are solutions for both Windows and Mac OS X, but I’m not sure which direction to be looking.
The only topic I was able to find recommended using wxPython, which isn’t something I can do for this particular project (needs to be Pygame).
PyGame uses SDL, which does not support transparent windows. Although at least on Linux making it transparent is done by the window manager, not the application.
