Yes, in QT this results in uninitialized color and look quite funny ;)

AFAIK Qt can't handle alpha properly. Transparency of such kind need a hack 
and is no real transparency. You have to grab the background under the licq 
window and paint the licq window with it. It is very slow :(

There isn't. If you feel able to write such code then try it and supply a 
patch to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 Yeap, with a skin for qt-gui I managed a while ago.

 It is possible to get rid of the frame etc. as I can see, but not
the background.

 If I don't define a background, it falls back to a solid color (of
course)

 I tried a png made up of alpha as background, but it all turned into a
color mess.


 I am not much into qt, but I guess having qt-gui handle alpa channel
properly will do the job.


 And if there is no such code yet, should I put this discussion to devel
? :)

He indicated under the link that the transparency was faked by using a 
background image for Licq that replicated the wallpaper underneath.

He's asking if there's any effort to make it actually do this programatically.

I'm not aware of any code in licq that would allow such transparency.

[Licq-main] theme question

2004-03-13 Thread Onur Kucuk


 Hello,


 I want to use a transparent theme, in which there is only the contacts
and buttons are drawn, and all else is transparent (aka no background
image).

 What I am looking for is something like

 http://www.delipenguen.net/delipenguen.png

 which fakes transparency using an image of that part of my wallpaper.


 Is this already done, and if so where can I find it ?

 How can I make such a theme ? I have read the skin howto and tried
making up a mask, but it seems it is not what I am looking for. 

 I am using cvs of 20040218, it is ok to test some code if necessary.
