TransWin - Make any window to be transparent
TransWin helps set transparency to windows.
Unlike Windows Vista/7 Aero, it can set the transparency to the whole client area of any windows. It can also set transparency to task bar, start menu, pop up menu etc. It can be used to set transparency under Windows 2000/XP too.
The transparency ratio is controllable, and it supports filters to let you control the transparency for special programs and windows.
Use Transparency Windows in Any Program
Some programs will provide the feature to use transparency on its windows, but most of them will not. Now with TransWin, you can make any window to be transparent, includes the start menu, task bar, and any web browser etc.
Transparency Value is Controllable
You can change the transparency value freely by dragging the slider bar on the main window of TransWin, choose a comfortable transparency ratio that will not disturb your works but is still cool. If you drag the slider bar to the leftmost, the transparency can be disabled.
The windows will barely be seen if you use the maximal transparency value by dragging the slider bar to the rightmost *.
* You will need to enable the super-trans feature to use the maximal transparency value (99%), the default max transparency value is 80% if you don't enable the super-trans feature.
Set Different Transparency for Special Programs or Windows
The slider bar in the Global page controls the global transparency value, which will normally affect all windows in the system. TransWin also provides the Filters feature to let you control transparency for special programs and windows.
By using the Filters feature, you can:
- Set different transparency values for individual programs or windows.
- Disable transparency for special programs or windows while the global transparency is enabled, or
- Enable transparency for special programs or windows while the global transparency is disabled.
