Hi, can someone show a newbie how to set transparency for a window that is not owned by AHK script? I have gotten far enough to from info on new windows, like the ahk_class, so I will have some idea maybe if this is best way to find ID for window & change transparency on it?  |

That's freakin awsome! Lol I didn't know that was even possible.
Is there a way to make any window opened transparent?
Like, if I manualy open a program can AHK automaticly make it transparant? And then run AHK on startup and in the background LOL that would be sweet.
