You would require ARGB visuals. Various drivers support them these

them a long time ago, he said we couldn't use them in Wine. I don't

recreate the window upon this call since I don't think we would want
to use ARGB by default.


Thanks for the info. I wasn't aware of the proper terms (ARGB visual) to google 
properly.

Is it possible to destroy and recreate a window under an application's nose 
without noticing during
the call to UpdateLayeredWindowIndirect() and friends?

Is there any other part of wine that is pulling such a trick (underlying window 
recreation)?

And if we do that then the next stop is bitblt in order to implement the proper 
blending behaviour. Is that correct?

May I ask about input transparency? Does X support that at all?
