Hi
Yes, I have tried this before and only get black background.
I have reported a bug
: https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-24707 (I am not sure whether
this should be a bug or a task).
I just want to make QQuickView with translucent bakcground work(with OpenGL as
backend is the best but Raster is also ok).
Because windows XP doesn't support pixel alpha blending with OpenGL so maybe
we can't make QQuickView work translucently in Xp with OpenGL backend, but we
can do that in Vista or win7 Using dwmapi.dll to support that.
I am not familiar with the new QQuickView structure, so I don't know what is
the best way to make QQuickView with translucent background work in Win7 and
Xp(with OpenGL the best), may you tell me what should I do or forward this
question to some person who is in charge of QQuickView and Scene Graph?
Thank you^_^

Subject: Re: [Development] Qt Quick2 OpenGL or Raster translucent window
Hi
Have you tried something like this:
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QGuiApplication app(argc, argv);
QSurfaceFormat f;
f.setSamples(16); // if you want AA as well
f.setAlphaBufferSize(8); // turn on alpha
QQuickView view;
view.setFormat(f);
view.setSource(QUrl::fromLocalFile(QLatin1String("/path/to/my.qml"));
view.show();
return app.exec();
}
I don't have a windows box handy to try this on, but give it a try.
As far as I know qmlscene doesnt know how to run with an alpha enabled GL
context.
