  • Thread-topic: QCView transparent background + full window screenshot with title

The program can use the following code to create a bitmap of an entire
window including its title bar:

    // wp is a NSWindow *

    NSView *windowView;
    NSBitmapImageRep *bitmap;

    windowView = [[wp contentView] opaqueAncestor];

    [windowView lockFocus];
    bitmap = [[NSBitmapImageRep alloc] initWithFocusedViewRect:
                [windowView frame]];
    [windowView unlockFocus];

The program will have to place the QCView is an overlay window (which is a
borderless, transparent window) - which it can create by subclassing
NSWindow. Apple has some sample code showing how to create an overlay window
in Cocoa.
