Is there a way to set the stage/background of a flash 8 app to transparent. I know you can set window mode to transparent in Publish settings, so is it the default grey of the browser html window that’s the issue??

I’ve been wondering if it was possible to mimic a desktop game like _Pirates of the Caribbean Desktop Galleon_.

for that, it used **[3rd party flash projector](http://blog.ggshow.com/index.php/links/2007/08/16/3rd_party_flash_projector)** 😉  
or in dreamweaver can be use “wmode=transparent” parameters.

btw, my flashweb used “wmode=transparent” parameters. but the button couldnt works or clickable. duno why… 😑
