Re: Alpha for Carbon window...

Scott,

Again thanks for the insight. I'm pretty sure I understand.


I *think* that you can directly access the pixels through the GWorld's baseAddress then. If that doesn't work then you can set up the the pixel image in your own pixel buffer and create a CGImage from that pixel buffer then use Quartz to draw that image into your window.

I'm currently doing all my drawing into an offscreen gworld, then copybitsing into the window on updates/draws. No alpha involved.

Seems to me that I need only to change my window from an old style window, to a new overlay window, do my offscreen drawing, then set the alpha of my gworld, and then use copybits (or CGImage) to copy the full argb pixels to the window/CGContext.

Will that work?


:-) :-) Read some basic Quartz documentation. :-) :-)

Will do... now that I know what I'm looking for...

Thx a million,
ando
