Hi

I am trying to make an invisible application. I cannot use EXE, because from time to time I need to show rather complex dynamic dialogs -> I need CCoeEnv.

I managed to create an invisible background by just not creating iAppView, but app still shows the very top row with the icon and app name. Is there a way to make this part of the screen also transparent?

Change:
iAppView->ConstructL( ClientRect() );

to

iAppView->ConstructL( ApplicationRect() );

Wouldn't this make the whole screen being white instead of being transparent?
Unfortunately I cannot test the code right now.

I think it is necessary hide the window, then to do a screenshot, then draw this screenshot on the window and  unhide window. Repeate Smiley
