    It seems you are using qmlscene to load the QML file, then you need to pass "--transparent" argument to it.

        Are you using QtCreator to execute that file ?

            Then Keeping your current project selected, go to
            QtCreator > Projects (On Left side pane) > Build & Run > Run > Run > Arguments

            and add "--transparent" as argument there for qmlscene.

            Note: There are two hypens for transparent, it appears to be combined after posting.

                      Yes exactly. Just remove the double quotes.

                          So what doesn't work for you ? If you have a Text element in this QML it will displayed as it is. It wont be affected by transparency.

                              It seems the Window itself has completely disappeared. Since I can't see it running in the task bar.

                              Here is what it looks like on my machine:
                              !http://i.imgur.com/8gLea96.jpg(Image3)!

                              Kept the default Project template like yours and just added color and opacity for rectangle. In my case it is seen running in taskbar.

                                  Quite strange. It is running but it is not shown in the taskbar. And if you remove the "--transparent" argument it shows as expected ?
                                  It could be bug. It seems you are running it on Windows XP. It tried it on Linux, Ubuntu flavor.
                                  Try creating it the other way.
                                  Create a new project as,
                                  File > New File Or Project > Application > Qt Quick Application
                                  and then in main.qml, you will find Window as root element. Try setting opacity to it.
                                  @
                                  import QtQuick 2.4
                                  import QtQuick.Window 2.2

                                  Window {
                                  visible: true
                                  opacity: 0.4
                                  MainForm {
                                  anchors.fill: parent
                                  mouseArea.onClicked: {
                                  Qt.quit();
                                  }
                                  }
                                  }
                                  @

                                      It seems to b a bug then since it works on Linux. You can report it on "Qt bugs tracker":https://bugreports.qt.io. Mention the scenario, OS, Qt Version and possibly a small reproducible example.
