TEdit Transparency Delphi 2009

[Razor]

I tried this

Delphi-Quellcode:

 procedure TForm2.WMEraseBkgnd(var message:TWMEraseBkgnd);
begin
 message.result:=1;
end;

Maybe i tried it the wrong way?
My goal is to make it fully transparent...

[Razor]

No body?

If you don't know what i mean i mean it like this

snipp

When you go over it turns gray if you go off its area it turns too glass.

The edit in your picture seems not be transparent at all. It has one background-color which fits to the color of the underlying gradient...
Maybe it is enough to set an adequate background color your edit?

[Razor]

It is transparent thats just hover color when you go over it with mouse..
When you leave the tedit area with your mouse it turns to glass..

What you are talking about is called "Aero Effect", it's a feature of Windows Vista.
I think in this case the DWM-API. should help you. ;)

€: There's a thread about that topic, including a unit that provides some functions to get components transparent. *click*

I hope you get along with it. cu

[Razor]

Danke big time,and twice as much if it will help... :-D

[Razor]

Can you be a little more specific there are loads of functions all for its own usage,its
like finding a needle in the egg... :|

EDIT:> an example would be great or am i asking too much?
