JFrame - interact with what's below???
Hi All
I'm just wondering whether anyone can shed any light on whether this is possible for me please?
I want to launch a full screen, undecorated JFrame but i also want the user to be able to interact with what's below it. So, maybe they can highlight text in a word doc, or click on a desktop icon for example.
Is this doable?
Cheers

This is going to be pretty tough with Java. Why do you want to do this?

That's basically the same as saying: I want a window in my house, but I still want to be able to touch the tree behind it.

I can imagine the OP want's to surreptitiously grab keystrokes as they "pass" through the unadorned window.
