Well, it does :-) However, I think I got your initial request wrong.

The problem is that its not possible to notice changes on screen. All
you can do is to make a snapshot of the screen part your window will

I once played around with a V39 feature (WA_BACKFILL or so). Setting this
to NONE (thats the V39 feature) yielded to a "transpartent" window. ;-)
