Transparency, even when Maximized

Published on December 28, 2007 By Pugboy In WindowBlinds

Is there a skin, or a way, to make the title bars (and if possible the task bar too) transparent/translucent?

Also, does anybody know the name of the WB (if it is released) on brenopoubel's desktop? I just like the transparent look

windowblinds 6 has transparency features, you can adjust the transparency of the task bar, window frames, start menu and menus themselves. the windowblind is brenopubels screenshot is called diamond i think and it comes with windowblinds 6. it looks like he/she has added extra transparency within the settings. to be able to have these transparency features your graphics card has to support per pixel. to access these settings load the windowblinds configuration window and click the transparency & blur tab then adjust the transparency to your liking. hope this helps

Do you have a link?

What version of WB do you have, trial or purchased. Per pixel/translucent window frames when running trial only works with included skins, download skins will not have trans frames.

There are dozens and dozens of them in the WB gallery.

Also with purchased version of WB you van adjust the trans for window frames taskbar and start menu right from WB config. You can also create so will be saved as sub stlyes on a skin by skin basis.
