Thanks for getting back to me:) I'm trying to make a binocular overlay, much like the telescope in the pipmak demo, only the lenses are made to look smudged and cracked-that's what's causing the problem. There are other possible uses-a simple flashlight, for example.

When you posted this question, I seemed to remember that the same thing had already been discussed once on this list before, so I wanted to consult that discussion before responding, but couldn't immediately find it, and eventually I just forgot about it. Sorry. I have found it now, it's at <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.games.devel.pipmak.user/335> and <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.games.devel.pipmak.devel/120/focus=123> and actually concerns a slightly different problem. As to your question, are you sure that the overlay already blocks panning where "even slightly opaque"? That must be a bug - it's supposed to do it only where more than half opaque. If that is a problem too, then I'm afraid, no, there is no way around it that I'm aware of. Perhaps that could be tackled together with the problem from that other discussion. Can you describe in a bit more detail what your use case is, to give me some idea of why this would be useful? -Christian ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Centralized Desktop Delivery: Dell and VMware Reference Architecture Simplifying enterprise desktop deployment and management using Dell EqualLogic storage and VMware View: A highly scalable, end-to-end client virtualization framework.
