Custom Shape Window - Movable?
Quote from PaulJonestindall on March 26, 2021, 2:29 pmI'm having a bit of a problem with a custom shaped window. I'm using a circle to make my custom shape; a clock face. What do I need or what conditions do there need to be in order to make it movable? Everything I've tried will not let me be able to move the window.

VisualNEOWin only supports Drag and Drop facilities for these two objects (tools) ...
a) Simple Text Tool - https://winhelp.visualneo.com/SimpleTextTool.html
b) Polygon/Hotspot Tool - https://winhelp.visualneo.com/PolygonHotspotTool.html#DragAndDrop... the Circle (Ellipse) shaped tool is not draggable by the user.

Quote from PaulJonestindall on March 26, 2021, 5:30 pmActually what I'm referring to with the circle is the bitmap image to create a custom shaped application in the Book Properties. It's a clock face and I select the color outside of the circle as transparent. This gives me a circular app but one of the options when selecting this type of app is that it can be moveable. Now, I am using a Rectangle object within my pub that is controlled by a plugin. This could have something to do with it. There's no "window surface area" for the mouse to click on to move it. Humpf.

Sorry, I did not read the phrase a custom shaped window.

Many (many) moons ago, I developed a game ... with assistance from Dave, I was able to make the odd shaped window draggable ... for how I did it, see ...

... the blue bar at the top is the background colour (with no object blocking it); doing a mouse-down/drag on this bar allows the window to be dragged.
Your case is a little more challenging, but doable ... just have to make the shape (that defines the window) to be a little larger than the image (round clock face) ... which creates a draggable area.
