[Qt-interest] [Fwd: Creating a Border to Desktop]

[Stefano Rosellini]

Ithink the differences from my method and the Raja one are these:
 - My method catches mouse events on border; the Raja method lets mouse 
events pass on border too.
 - Raja method should have better performance because mouse events pass 
without taking care of mask. I don't know about paint performance (mask 
vs background).
