    Enum Constants
    Enum Constant | Description
    --- | ---
    `PERPIXEL_TRANSLUCENT` | Represents support in the underlying system for windows that contain or might contain pixels with arbitrary alpha values between and including 0.0 and 1.0.
    `PERPIXEL_TRANSPARENT` | Represents support in the underlying system for windows each pixel of which is guaranteed to be either completely opaque, with an alpha value of 1.0, or completely transparent, with an alpha value of 0.0.
    `TRANSLUCENT` | Represents support in the underlying system for windows all of the pixels of which have the same alpha value between or including 0.0 and 1.0.

    - #### PERPIXEL_TRANSPARENT

          public static final GraphicsDevice.WindowTranslucency PERPIXEL_TRANSPARENT

      Represents support in the underlying system for windows each pixel of which is guaranteed to be either completely opaque, with an alpha value of 1.0, or completely transparent, with an alpha value of 0.0.

    - #### TRANSLUCENT

          public static final GraphicsDevice.WindowTranslucency TRANSLUCENT

      Represents support in the underlying system for windows all of the pixels of which have the same alpha value between or including 0.0 and 1.0.

    - #### PERPIXEL_TRANSLUCENT

          public static final GraphicsDevice.WindowTranslucency PERPIXEL_TRANSLUCENT

      Represents support in the underlying system for windows that contain or might contain pixels with arbitrary alpha values between and including 0.0 and 1.0.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### values

          public static GraphicsDevice.WindowTranslucency[] values()

      Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

          for (GraphicsDevice.WindowTranslucency c : GraphicsDevice.WindowTranslucency.values())
              System.out.println(c);

      Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

    - #### valueOf

          public static GraphicsDevice.WindowTranslucency valueOf(String name)

      Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
      Parameters:
        `name` - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
      Returns:
        the enum constant with the specified name
      Throws:
        `IllegalArgumentException` - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
        `NullPointerException` - if the argument is null
