title: Android JavaFX Blendmode/Overlay effect
body: <p>I'm new to android developing so forgive me if this is a dumb question but i was trying to make an app with some nice graphical effects where you have some transparent objects that show a background that's only visible through the objects so they act like "windows". A very nice example of this can be found <a href="http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2.0/get_started/jfxpub-get_started.htm" rel="nofollow">here</a>. I would like to know if this kind of effect is possible in android? (I don't need to know about JavaFX I understand it there I just want to know how to achieve the same effect as shown on the site) </p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance, crognar.</p>
