Making Outliner/GG Windows Translucent - MikeJ - 05-04-2023
Is there a way to lower the opacity of the Outliner/GG/Selection Groups windows so as to make them a bit less intrusive into the workspace?
In older versions you used to be able to click the Geometry Window title bar and toggle the visibility of the other windows, but apparently that trick doesn't work any more.

Anyone?

That was possible when SDL (a graphic library) was used to build the Wings3D UI. After wxWidgets has been adopted to make Wings3D's UI have an OS native look and feel it's no longer possible to get transparency (not natively).

Thank you for the response.
OK, the Wings Wiki states that you can LMB the title bars of the GG/Outliner windows to 'roll them up'. I can't seem to make that work either.

Yeah.
The documentation needs to be updated, but we don't have volunteers for that. The current one was written before we enter in the v2.1.0 era (seven years ago).
