I've noticed that some applications I see have partially

100% opaque in most parts, but then there's a 50% transparent part
(you can see your desktop through the window). I am wondering if
there is a simple way to do this, or if you must subclass NSWindow
or something of the sort.
You could start off with doing this in, for example, your window
controller's -awakeFromNib method:
[window setOpaque:NO];
[window setBackgroundColor:[NSColor colorWithCalibratedWhite:0.0
alpha:0.5]];
Then in IB create your window and fill it with views that have
transparent or opaque backgrounds as desired.
