Hello Pekka

You can use the WBlit command. It works on Cybergraphix/Picasso96
and native Screens. It clips the shape system friendly
and converts it automatically from planar to chunky if neccesary.
With the Jam command you can set if it should have color 0
transparent or not.

But you will get into trouble when you mix this with the
newcommandset, as it has its own Objects. You have to
"fake" a Blitz window with pokeing into the
Blitz-Window Structure (which is only a longword with
the pointer to the intuition Window-Structure)
like this:

poke.l addr window(n),NWindowID

(But don`t forget to set this to zero again before you exit)

Disadvantages:
This solution is not very fast and its not easy to
restore the background of the shape if it should move.

But otherwise you have to go deep into the graphics.library.

Ciao,

Thilo
