What about creating a blurred glass effect PNG image? This could be contained inside a ContainerMeter to allow shaping it. You could adjust it's Alpha level for transparency effects.You in effect would need to somehow remove the skin in question, do a screen-capture of the area behind the skin defined by the size and shape of the desired "blur area(s)", do a Gaussian blur on this captured bitmap, then place this altered bitmap behind the skin. This would have to be done on EVERY Update / Redraw of the skin. The resources used are going to be hideous.
Wouldn't that do the same thing? I'm not suggesting this be done by the Rainmeter team, but by users. I would be interested, but have no idea how to make a glass effect PNG. Does anyone have any ideas how to do this in PaintdotNET prefereably.
