_SETcontainerTransparency

_SETcontainerTransparency

Set the transparency values of a container.
The transparency can be processed with a transparency color or with an alpha blending factor.

You must add the WN_TRANSPARENCY flag to the window creation (_CRwindow) in order to process the container transparency.

Important

Windows 95/98/ME are not able to internaly process the window transparency, so the transparency has to be simulated.
2000/XP programers can use _SIMULATEcontainerTransparency in order to get an idea of the transparent items behaviour, running with 95/98/ME.
