Create a fully transparent WPF window to capture mouse events

Question

I\'m trying to trap mouse events in WPF by using a topmost, transparent non-modal window. I\'m finding that this works fine if the opacity of the window is 0.01 or greater

Answer 1

For example i think your control name is MyGrid and you want it be Transparent and always get MouseOverEvent.....

If (window AllowsTransparency is True and the window Background is Transparent) Then

use a color like #01777777 for MyGrid Background Or 0.01 for MyGrid Opacity.

Else

use something like #00777777 for MyGrid Background Or 0.00 for MyGrid Opacity.
