Transparent window example?

[Keith (Gulf Breeze Ortho Lab)]

Hi Again,

Is there a way to set a stack to a blendlevel of say 75, but keep an object 
(such as a button) at a blendlevel of 0? That is, a somewhat transparent 
window, but a solid button/control on the transparent window?

I have played around with it, but the object seems to inherit the blendlevel 
of the stack... Even when setting an object's blendlevel to 0.

Thanks,

- Boo

just:
...
set the blendlevel of stack X to Y
## where Y = 0 - 100
...
This will only affect the "transparency" of that stack, everthing else like 
"resizable" is NOT affected!

Check "blendlevel" in the dictionary, it's definitivley no rocket science 
:-)
