Details:

Hello, I am trying to make an application (Not a DLL) but I can't seem to find a way to make the window background semi-transparent (Changing the alpha). I have tried removing the background with a flag but it seems like it not working aswell.

I am using DX11 & Win32. Thanks.

What window background? the platform (win32) window or the imgui window? https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/wiki/Glossary Have you searched for "transparent" already?

Better edit out the quoted malware link there, would be a shame if anybody clicked it and got infected that way.

As for your question: if you mean the platform window, that is currently out of the scope of ImGui. If you want to give it a try yourself, this might help: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/1190872/how-do-i-create-a-simple-transparent-window-in-win

Both will work cause I am only showing the ImGui window as a win32 window Like that: {18F6EB93-2EE2-4889-B20B-E68C1A2E9C11}

You are on your own there are ample resources here and outside about this.
