there is a GUI shell display option , 'show window contents while dragging'
if the user wants it they can probably have it without your intervention
otherwise things like transparency depend on OS version
you can find when a form is being moved
procedure WMMoving(var Message: TMessage); message WM_Moving;
procedure WMMove(var Message: TMessage); message WM_Move;
procedure TForm1.WMMoving(var Message: TMessage);
// lots of these when moving
procedure TForm1.WMMove(var Message: TMessage);
dragging is system, changes don't appear and system drops its bundle
if you do too much here
you could probably convince it with some magic word of power
but it probably isn't useful.
