Main Form question

[vriyg]

I need to make my main Form1 visible, with some opacity (like 50%, being able to see thru it) but prevent my Form1 from getting the focus so that I can manipulate what's behind my Form1, meaning another application, sort of like a transparent sheet that I would tape to my screen and work behind... Is that possible?
Thanks.

Never tried that! Does setting the form transparency to say 50% and then setting Form.Enable = False work? I guess you'd need a child form you could min/maximize to re-enable the main form from time to time.
