How can I do that? Hi all, I'm using Builder 4.0, and What I want to do is to take a picture of any object, for example an airplane, or a ball, or a car, and to make it move left and right on my desktop, how can I do that? I think that what I need is a transparent form, and on this form I should put a TImage, and set 'Transparent=true' in the image properties, and then to load my picture, which will include the object in the middle, and a transparent background around it. But how can I do that? How can I create a transparent form? A piece of an example code can be nice. Thanks!

I looked there but I just got confused, I could not extract the seed code that I need, I tried some of the codes but when I tried to move the form left and right instead of be transparent it looks like it's dragging with it piece of the desktop..... Maybe you can give me a link to a single example, I'm looking for the shortest and the simplest way to do that. If it's hard to move the form, I dont' care about using a large transparent form and to move the Image itself left and right so that it will looks like it's moving over the desktop and over all the other windows/Applications (Paint, Word, Excell...)
