Actual Transparent Window offers you the window transparency option which you will inevitably like! By using different levels of transparency which can be accessed via contextual menu, hotkey or the title button (placed on the title bar next to the standard Minimize/Restore/Close buttons), you can come up with some fantastic looking desktops.
Use this tool to draw superb portraits with world-famous masterpieces. Open any picture, create a new image in Adobe Photoshop, make its window semi-transparent and draw a portrait or a landscape, preserving the subtle overtones of the original!
Our program has a nice added bonus which can become the feature you won't be able to work without! Always switch between windows? Spend valuable time on saving and restoring windows? Do away with this problem once and for all! Now you can observe the contents of one "passive" window behind the "active" one. Apply individual transparency rate to applications you want (e.g., Yahoo Messenger, WinAmp) and change it as many times as you like.
Choose in the list of available options tools, particularly useful for you. Decide if you want to set transparency only when the window becomes inactive (active window becomes non-transparent again, which is especially good for messengers) or apply ghost-mode when all mouse clicks and moves are made through the transparent window to underlying windows.

Version 4.5 Changes: [!] Windows Monitoring Log tool is added into the Control Center. It allows
detecting newly appeared windows and check, which window rule has been
applied in each particular case. Now you can easily solve any configuration
ambiguities and detect properties of short-living windows (like tool tips,
popup menus etc.). Be careful using this feature: turned on it may slow down
your system!
[+] The ability to hide the mouse pointer, while it is floating over the
specific window, is added.
[+] The ability to copy settings from a selected window rule to others is added.
[+] The new hotkeys are added:
- "Reapply settings" action (Win+F5 by default)
- Configuration Module's launch (Win+C by default)
- "Unhide" submenu that shows the list of currently minimized/hidden
windows (Win+H by default)
[+] Now the hotkey status is displayed in the "Hotkeys" panel of the "Options"
window: when defining a new key combination, you can see, if the defined
combination is already in use with another application or assigned to
another action.
[+] The on-the-fly transparency setting is added: when right-clicking the
"Make Transparent" title button, the slider control appears instead of the
context menu with predefined values; while dragging this slider, the
transparency level is being changed immediately, thus allowing a quicker
and easier choice of desired appearance.
[+] Now the balloon tip is shown over the Control Center's tray icon at first
start after the installation.
[*] The internal mechanism of hotkeys processing is significantly improved.
[*] The options structure is redesigned: new "Triggers" and "Actions" grouping
nodes are added.
[*] The "Hide Configuration Module while using Window Finder" option has been
moved from General to User Interface.
[*] Title buttons appearance in Windows Vista is improved.
[-] The "orphaned title buttons" bug in Windows Vista is fixed:
sometimes title buttons used to get detached from their owner window and
stuck on the desktop.
[-] Compatibility conflicts are solved with:
- Quattro Pro X3 menus
- GrabIt internal windows
- MS Office XP CTFMON.EXE service
- X-NetStat application
[-] Now the "Configure..." item of Control Center tray icon's context menu
is displayed correctly in Windows Vista.
[-] Transparency effect conflicts are solved with:
- CDArtdisplay application
- Emerge Desktop application
- Windows Vista Start button
[-] Title buttons now work properly in PowerPoint 2007.
[-] Title buttons' behavior in Outlook 2007 is improved.
