I think so, but...Are you using a Mac?

I'm not sure exactly the effect you're looking for. It appears you want the
RR app to be a window over the desktop, but with a rounded corner border. In
that case, yes, I think.

Take a screenshot of the desktop with the app in the place you choose, and
import it to RR's or your favorite other paint program. Modify the 'window'
border on the one with the app, cut it out, paste it in your app background
and  make the app window borderless.

You may have to do some resizing. Don't know how you plan to hide or show
the window, either, but maybe I hope this will help get you on track.
