Window Overlay Software

[Agent Squirrel]

What is the best software to do just that? so I want to have a little overlay window (for watching videos or something) on top of my game, something like OnTopReplica.

No idea what the "best" software for that would be, but you can use e.g. Autohotkeys to toggle a window into always-on-top mode. I actually use my own Autohotkey-script just for that, ie. I press ctrl+space to toggle always-on-top on or off for the window that currently has focus.

always-on-top.exe

always-on-top.ahk

You should just post the source code instead of an executable, especially since Always On Top is a one line command in AHK.

 

Not saying that you're posting a malicious file, but it's not good practice for anyone to download an unverified executable on a forum.

I actually meant to post the code, but I seem to have accidentally dragged the wrong file and didn't notice. That said, I would imagine my posting-history would be enough of an indication that I have zero interest in posting anything malicious.

Thanks for the answers, but I would prefer a program, because something like OnTopReplica you can toggle if your cursor can control what inside the replica, or the opacity of the window, but sadly, the last update is 7 years ago.
