Is it possible to have a transparent BG when employing GDIPlus ?
The following script lets me display text against a transparent background.
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Au3Check_Parameters=-d -w 1 -w 2 -w 3 -w 4 -w 5 -w 6
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WinAPI.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
Global $hGui = GUICreate("", 400, 300, -1, -1, $WS_POPUP, BitOR($WS_EX_TOPMOST, $WS_EX_LAYERED))
GUISetBkColor(0xF1F1F1)
Global $sString = "Testing 123" & @CRLF & "I've got info for you."
Thank you very much, @UEZ , for your example but I am having trouble figuring out which parts of your example are applicable to my script and goals. I think what's tripping me up (besides understanding very little about GDIPlus) is your example contains a view commands that are not in my script (which surely came from some other post of yours), and vice versa.
Also, I decided I want to load the display text from a file (so I can easily change it) AND I want the text to "stream" onto the sc
