transparent brush colors

To put it simple, I would like to draw a red trasparent rectangle over a yellow one. Is this possible without using bitmaps and alpha channels?

thanks, Marco

not with wx.

As you suspect, you can use bitmaps and alpha channels -- it's a heck of
a kludge, and it's slow, but it does work.

You can also use another rendering library, like PIL's Agg_draw,
PyCairo, etc.

Search these archives for more discussion.
