Is 'the image' loaded by Java into 'the window'
programmed by you?  If so, this might be done
a lot simpler than using Robot to get screenshots.

What is robot?

What is 'the image loaded by Java'??

I would like to have a window.
The user moves (drag) the window with the mouse, and the window acts
like a magnifier glass (or other image filtering) for everything that
is below the window itself: other windows, desktop image, etc.

Not 'robot, 'Robot', as in the J2SE class
java.awt.Robot.  The Robot can take screenshots.

..have you considered hiring a Java programmer?

No, because I'm a C++ programmer myself (and I can code in Java, too).

Have you considered answering questions if you can/want, or better not
posting at all?

(My question was very specific.)

I was just asking for a pointer to some Swing or AWT class or method
or specific flag to manage some form of window transparency (or just
confirmation for my original idea of screenshot).

Of course, I was not asking to post Java source code :)

May be off-topic, but..
A web search on 'java screen magnifier' produced
http://scanline.ca/magnify/
Note that it is implemented with SWT, but may provide some ideas.
