Is that true in both Carbon and Cocoa builds? If so, I would prefer to just move my code to OverlayMBS for all targets. ___ Mbsplugins_monkeybreadsoftware.info mailing list mbsplugins@monkeybreadsoftware.info https://ml01.ispgateway.de/mailman/listinfo/mbsplugins_monkeybreadsoftware.info

If so, I could even use a normal realbasic window... Well, in Carbon: yes if you use MakeTransparentMBS. For Cocoa I still need to find a way to enable it.

That makes sense. In fact, I would like to consolidate my code into a single class (right now I'm using OverlayMBS for Win32, and OverlayWindowMBS for Mac). Question: is it possible with the REALbasic window class to draw transparent background colors (e.g. to use an alpha value in the window.paint or canvas.paint event) ? If so, I could even use a normal realbasic window... ___ Mbsplugins_monkeybreadsoftware.info mailing list mbsplugins@monkeybreadsoftware.info https://ml01.ispgateway.de/mailman/listinfo/mbsplugins_monkeybreadsoftware.info

Well, I add those child window methods to NSWindowMBS class. For an OverlayMBS you can get the NSWindowMBS object and do whatever you like. But for OverlayWindowMBS, well that's a carbon window. > > NSWindowAttachWindowOrdered(ptr(self.Handle), ptr(childWindow.handle), > NSWindowAbove) I wonder why this does not crash if you pass the handle of the OverlayWindowMBS!? A NSWindow* is expected there.

Yes. And? CPU time is scheduled and if the other code does not yield back, the timer can't fire. But I'm happy that with our timers, we can have a resolution of more than 1000 per second.
