How to get “glass” into your application using WPF or WinForms

  • Artigo

The great thing about working at a company the size of Microsoft is that sometimes people get things done that you wanted to do before you get around to it. In this case – some folks on our evangelism and SDK teams have written some really slick samples for how to get “glass” into your application, in a similar fashion to what you see in Internet Explorer 7+, Office 12, and Windows Media Player 11 on Windows Vista.

    The problem with the windows forms version is that it is using a layered window - so that any mouse click on the "glass" area actually goes through to anything behind it!   This was brought up in the comments but never addressed. (nothing against Mr. Sneath, the information was definitely welcome)

    So if you still want, people would love it if you wrote up a correct solution!
