Finally I found the reason for hiding the menu! It's in libhildon function hildon_app_menu_find_intruder. It thinks that the window with the "This is an RGBA window" label is an "intruder" (such as dialog etc.) and closes the menu as soon as it is mapped. This seems like a bug since the menu should not be mapped in the first place if this "intruder" is already there at mapping time. To summarize: this is libhildon bug and hildon-desktop is completely innocent (at last...)! ;) -Kimmo > > -Kimmo > > > -- > > Luca Donaggio > > > > 2009/11/10 Kimmo Hämäläinen <kimmo.hamalai...@nokia.com> > > On Tue, 2009-11-10 at 14:12 +0100, ext Luca Donaggio wrote: > > > Hi Kimmo, > > > > > > I'm sorry to bother you again, but the problem I'm facing is > > not how > > > to get a transparent window, but that if I create such a > > window the > > > HildonAppMenu of its parent HildonWindow doesn't show > > anymore. > > > I (slightly) modified your code to exemplify my situation. > > > > > > Ah, yes, I can see it.
