Transparent front panel

[Harris Hu]

I want to make the front panel transparent according to the background color to remove the unwanted parts.

When I set the windows behavior of the VI to floating, the program is OK.

But when I set thewindows behavior of the VI to the modal, there is a transparent border, and it is not fully transparent. Is there any good solution?

The VI of the test is in the test1.rar file.

I have not used that Windows API before.

Why don't you just resize the window to as big as the area you want to remain?

My front panel doesn't always rule.

For example, rounded corners。

I'm not sure what you mean by "not fully transparent" but if you want to get rid of the border you can do something like this.

用Windows API指定要透明的颜色就可以了，例如你这个程序可以指定白色部分透明，运行程序的时候界面上就只会看到两个布尔控件。

那不正是 Hu 做的吗？问题是边框的颜色不是单一的。
