MPNQBFreebasic Transparency/FL Visuals
Is there anything currently availible in FreeBasic, that will work in DOS, that I can make transparent colored boxes with, like Future.Library or Rellib? Is there also anything that will permit TrueType or bitmap fonts in FreeBasic DOS? Currently in the process of demoing a project called AAV, Advanced Animations and Visuals. It's not a full-fledged GUI but more like a demo of particular concepts that can be used in 16 and 32 bit color mode GUIs.

There's Allegro which works pretty well. It's a little big but it can do the job. You'd have to read up on the docs but I think it should be able to do that. It's intended for extensive graphics.

The built in FB library will let you do transparency, but I find it doesn't like 24bit color(needed for transparency) on DOS Hardware.
