Transparent slider background - how? - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

Hi!
I played a little with HDWall today and got a little Problem with it: The slider bar is "hanging in the air" due to the grey background. How do I get this thing transparent (the background, not the icons )?

Have you new tabs? ( docs, ereader)

NRGZ28 flushed the eReader-tab, but the documents-tab is still there. New is the call-history-tab...
So here´s the full listing:
-EnergyROM 23549 + Cookie´s Home Tab
-WM 6.5.5 build 23548
-Manila 2.5.20121225

If you're using the same version of Manila as I am (2.5.1920), you need to install a transparent version of the file 511c6915_manila to 'get rid' of that 'curtain' behind the slider. If you're using a different Manila version, it might be a different filename, but the effect should be the same.
Antonio also has a cab that will add transparency to the slider in several places. It may be more than you need, but he can at least point you in the right direction...

So not good! I'm sorry. But if you take away thedocuments cab, try this!

Ok, deactivated documents & call history tab. Your .cab works fine! Thanks!

Hehe, sure bro. First post edited ..
Thank you!
Can you tell shortly how to extract the slider out of a theme? Thank you
So I don't have to ask theme builder too often to do that for me.
Thanks bro!
BTW do you have the cabs for no curtains for both top and bottom curtains? Both in a single cab and separate ones. For Topaz or TF3D 2.1.
Thanks

Its complicated actually. (to me anyway). You need to know the manila files for the slider. Then use a cab manager to extract and make the cab file. (wince cab manager (not freeware)). A lot of trial and error for me. That's why I only extract this one.

Steve, first of all, thank you for your prompt answer. I sincerely apologize, because it worked the first time, I thought that the top icons (volume, signal, battery…) would change to colored ones, and now I realized it was only the calendar and clock. Would you kindly let me know how to change the top right icons? Again thank you very much, and sorry for the nubby questions!
Any chance for this for Manila 2.1?
Very nice! Thank You.
Thank you very much for this .cab, tomorrow i try it!!!!!

Can you tell me or have the registry file.

Nice work, thanks!
I´m wondering how do you get the colored symbols in the upper task bar - active sync, sound, battery etc.?

Right - I see what you're asking now.
The wallpaper is actually "overlayed" with the taskbar and menu, so it is fullscreen, but behind those objects.
Search for HDWall (it's not in the Leo section - I believe it's in the Blackstone section, but could be wrong, so do a search of all forums).
That makes hi-quality wallpapers (better than the resized-by-htc wallpapers that you normally get) and it does it for all tabs. You also have the option to skin the taskbar and menu, and even change the slider if you want.
That will do what you ask anyway. Hope it helps

i'm using miri 1.4 rom right now, that one is provided with manila 1922. Hdwall still doesn't support that version. The wallpaper will come out mangled and all weird....

That shouldn't make any difference. It's not making any changes to the OS, just the GUI.

i noticed that when i select titanium as homescreen, the bottom bar is semi transparent, how can i also get that when using sense??? That would fix half of the problems i'm facing...

no clever ideas/solutions for me?

I told you already, MaxTTM
Try this Transparent softkey .tsk file, along with MaxTTM.
Then you can have clear bars and no softkey bubble buttons.
Although it does not line up perfectly. It looks best with textured or patterned wallpapers. In my opinion. It really depends on what B4all you are using as well.

Is it possible to have all tabs (e.g. mail, messages, music etc.) semi transparent in such a way that instead of having black background one can have same background as on the home tab?

CHT just makes it appear transparent by skinning the taskbar (only in portrait mode if I remember correctly). To actually make it transparent, you can edit aygshell.exe and shell32.exe of the WM build you are using and copy it to \windows. See thread below for more info:
