Do you mean transparent as in certain pixels are not drawn on
top of something else or a pixel on the source is blended to a
corresponding pixel on the target?

Blending is going to require that you `XGetImage' the source and
manipulate the target internally with your own blitting code.

Transparency can be done by using a clip mask bitmap when you
draw one pixmap on top of the other as it does with the pixtext
cells on the GtkCList.
