Publisher's description of TranspApps

From Vasilios Freeware:

Give transparency to almost every visible window of your running applications, or make your taskbar transparent at a desirable level. TransApps is a systray application with two features: the Transparent Applications feature, from were you can make any visible running application's window transparent (which means the applications that appears on the taskbar), selecting from a panel of transparency level buttons; the Transparent Taskbar feature, from were you can make your taskbar transparent, selecting also from a panel of transparency level buttons.

Editor's review of TranspApps

This freeware changes the transparency of all active application windows and in the Windows Taskbar, but we experienced some minor issues. TransApps uses an XP-based interface that lists all the visible application windows and has multiple buttons for all the transparency levels. Pick an application from the list and click the button of the level you want -from 0 percent (solid) to 90 percent (nearly transparent). If you want to make your taskbar transparent, click the Start menu icon button and select the desired button of transparency. The transparency changes take place immediately, but in testing we found the affected applications were more difficult to see and access than we bargained for. Despite that glitch, anyone wanting to see through their open applications can try this freeware.

  "Alas, disapointed again."

  by sunaoni on August 13, 2006

  Pros: It is easy to use, and in English! It is a bit pretty, and it does do what it claims it will.

  Cons: Like every other product; When I move the window it reverts back from being transparent. Nobody else has complained about that, so it must just be me, though. It is gawdy. You control what is transparent using a pop-up window, and it has an icon in the bottom right at all times. (Not on the desktop.)
