"clickthrough=yes" ??? Wait, what? Is there a new version I don't know about?
I'm still using v1.1.8 build 1 with no clickthrough option.
Could you please provide the newer download url?
Thank you!

2022... 10 years later and I'm still using frameless ...because it's awesome!

My only issue is that I have been unable to lock the "x=c y=c" so the image that I placed in the center of the screen cannot be moved.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks.

General Software Discussion / Frameless v1.1.8 build 1

It was nice to see some command-line options added.
If any requests for Frameless are being accepted, I have two.
1) Prevent mouse from dragging image around screen. Lock x-y coordinates.
2) Allow animated gifs to show Desktop through transparent areas.

That's it. Those are my ideas.

Thanks for putting out an already amazing product!

I don't know if frameless.exe is still being developed, I haven't seen any new releases since v1.1.7 build 1 going back to 2014, but I'm using that version and gave up on semi-transparent animated .gifs
Maybe one day the author/creator will add some features.

Here is the latest animated .gif I was working on. It goes hand-in-hand with a .bat program I created that runs Piriform's CCleaner to shut down Windows 10.

Thanks all for the input and help. It is much appreciated!

Finished Programs / Re: DONE: Open images without program window showing.

« on: November 08, 2015, 03:03 AM »

I recently used a program called "Image Overlay Utility" and it had 2 features that were really cool.
- Click Thru (keeps the open image always on top and cannot be moved, but objects can be moved under it)
- Region transparency (if an image contains areas of transparency, you can see the desktop in those areas - but the rest of the image remains solid)
If Frameless is still being developed, I would like to add these options as a suggestion.

P.S. "Image Overlay Utility" requires a license to work with command-line. That's why I still use Frameless.

Hi Tomos, sorry I didn't see your reply in top of IainB's reply.
A lot of machines? Maybe 10 to 15.
It's for non-commercial/private use on family & friend's computers.
Did you have something in mind?

Thanks for the suggestions IainB.
It does 85% of what I'm looking for.
The only thing it is missing is; Lock x, y, coordinates and; no right-click on image (click-thru) kind of like a Always On Top Ghost.
Image Overlay Utility is an amazing program except for the licensing limitations, and each time the program is run it goes online to verify the license.
What a shame!

I found a program that does what I need it to.
It's called: Image Overlay Utility
It allows:
> transparency through even in an animated .gif
> Click-thru (like a ghost image always on top)
> Disable all right functions on image (when Click-thru is enabled)
See my attached pic.
The only issue is... You have to purchase a license, $5.00 for only 3 computers.
Use of this license on more than 3 computers will cause it to void the license.
Does anyone know of a powerful software like this without licensing limitations?
or... is Frameless still being developed with newer features?

Thanks for the reply.
I am looking for a program/utility that allows alpha transparency using multiple .png files - basically like an animated .gif only with transparency to the Desktop behind.

I'll repost my original question to whom ever is out there; Is there a way to show a picture using Frameless.exe (or a program like it) allowing for Desktop background transparency?

It would if it were real, it's just an animated .gif I made just to illustrate what I was talking about. Lol!
I'm looking for a program (like Frameless.exe) that can load animated .gif's but allow for transparency.
Example: When you load Adobe Reader, the logo is semi-transparent.
