<p>there is an extremely ridiculous hack that could be tried, *if*
the guis are for display only: similar to jmmmp/pix2canvas, a
group of 1x1 canvases can be used to fake an alpha channel.</p>
<p>But besides the condition above, the purpose of this will be
mainly to show how ridiculously far Pd users will go to handle the
current limitations they're bound to.</p>
<p>(actually, guis can be placed under the canvases to create an
interaction - which will make the whole concept even more
ridiculous)<br>

That's funny, I've just recently discovered your PoF project,
which you've mentioned below: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"

<p>I haven't really tried it, just skimmed through the code, but
the multi-threaded rendering looks very promising and should
make it much more suitable for building GUIs while simultanously
running audio!<br>

<div>But what if I want to write an external that does

have in Max.</div>
