[Java-gnome-developer] Non-Rectangular windows

[Stefan P. <pr...@tz...>]

Hi all,

I am trying to get a non-rectangular window (showing a progress bar).
=46rom searching around the web, I found hints that applying a Pixbuf of a
PNG with an alpha channel and a mask to a GDK window (and disabling the
decoration) does the trick (at least for the non-rectangular part). At
least for regular GTK+ with newer X Servers.

But when trying to follow these hints in the Java bindings, I am stuck
after loading a Pixbuf or a Bitmap with the image. I don't know how to
set the background of the org.gnu.gtk.Window and I don't know how to use
a org.gnu.gtk.Window and place a GTK widget in it (if this is even
possible).

Can anybody give me an example here? I would really appreciate it.

Regards,
  Stefan
