Why must the internal webView must be transparent ? I want to see
the webView (alpha = 1.0).
The setBackgroundColor is not a valid method for webView, tried it
anyway and of course it doesn't work. WebView inherits from NSView.

Kevin,
more than the window, you have to make the internal webView
transparent too.
[webView setBackgroundColor:[NSColor colorWithCalibratedWhite:0.0
alpha:0.0]];
and since I presume that the webView is embedded within a
NSScrollView,
you have to make the [webView enclosingScrollView] transparent too.
[[webView enclosingScrollView]setBackgroundColor:
[NSColor colorWithCalibratedWhite:0.0 alpha:
0.0]];
tell me whether it worked.
Best Regards

I'm trying to use the WebKit to render web pages to the screen but
without a window background. I can make an NSWindow that is
borderless (I don't need any window controls) and can do the
loadRequest into the main frame, display it and set the alpha value.
The only problem is that I can still see the background white
window , that the web page was put onto, which I don't want to see.
Can anyone tell me how to make the base image on the window
transparent, while the view that's placed in it is opaque?
Thanks,
Kevin.
