Hi Atlant, I tried that method some time back. The problem is my dfb setup doesnt blend windows when there is an alpha involved. The Dialog becomes opaque even when I paint it with alpha. I have tried various options like
force-windowed Primary surface always is a window force-desktop Primary surface is the desktop background [no-]hardware Hardware acceleration bg-none Disable background clear bg-color=AARRGGBB Use background color (hex) [no-]translucent-windows But it seems my dfb driver itself doesnt support any translucency in windows.
