Is there a cab that makes my soft buttons in the bottom bar transparent. I'm using the Artemis 6.5.5 rom, just cant't find a way to make the buttons transparent.

HD2 Bottom Bar

hello how do I change the bottom bar (the one on which both soft keys are placed)
Any cabs already avalaible?
I saw the android theme soft keys bar that looks very nice but I would know how to install that
You can install TF3D and go to WM6.5 tab. There u can modify and customize the bar. Good luck!

[REQ] Text only buttons in WM 6.5.5

Hi all,
I searched over the foums but could not find an answer. Is there any cab that change the rounded buttons in WM 6.5.5 into Text only buttons? There are some themes that do that but I dont want any other fancy extras (i.e. change icons, task bar, etc.), I just want these buttons to go away so that my wallpaper will look nicer. I got the whole home page transparent now except for these buttons.
Many thanks,
NTD

delete the relevant section of registry is one way to do it
Code:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\SoftKeyBar
if you look you can clearly see the name of the images that are used.
if you delete the values then the buttons disappear as well..
Many thanks, I deleted the keys in Toolbat instead of SoftKeyBar and they are now gone

Transparent top and bottom taskbars

Hello,
I'm trying to get my top and bottom taskbars transparent. But I have no success.
I tried the cab from smaberg, changed the manila files in windows folder and also removed the taskbar.png with transparent ones.
All this doesn't work for me.
Who has a solution for Manila 2.5.19211619.0.
Thanks.
For transparent taskbars you have to use "HDWall" - search for it
smabergs cab is only for the cutains behind the operator logo and the bottom slider

But tbh, this is not a solution for transparency... It just replaces the black backgrounds in the top and bottom with slices of the selected wallpaper, meaning that as long as you can see the top bar, even if in a program, it will have the same slice of the wallpaper.
Real transparency comes for example when you press the windows hard button and get to that menu, that's a real transparent bar at the top... Although it might work in the same way, what do I know. I just find it too ugly that when you're in another program the top bar still has the slice of the wallpaper..

I tried HDWall. But the result is not satisfying. The bottom taskbar is now like the wallpaper. But the top is black. If I go to start menu the background is from the theme only the bottom taskbar is from the wall paper.
If I slide the menu I can't see the background. All is black except the bottom taskbar.
At the end this is ugly.

I played a bit around and deactivated Sense. So there´s the standard WM 6.5.5 homescreen - with transparent taskbar & softbar. Why isn´t this possible with Manila?

How can I replace HTCblack_softkeybar and HTCblack_taskbar?

I have the files, but I don't know how or where to put them, exactly.
Please, can someone tell me where to place them and how?
- HTCblack_taskbar
- HTCblack_softkeybar
Thanks in advance.
Hi
Can you give us a bit more information about what you are wanting to do?
Are you wanting to replace the stock taskbar and and softkey bar with something new?
If so, perhaps this thread will be of interest:

I want to replace the bottom bar and not mess up the taskbar icons, pinscreen and volume control.
So far, I've tried installing a bottom bar by cab, and it does all three of these things.

I installed the black glossy taskbar from the link above and it has done nothing but change the taskbar and softkey graphics. No icons, volume control etc items have been modified.
copy them to Windows directory in device memory

Anyone who has a cab that would make the softkeys bar 100% Transparent on Duttys CDLC v15? Poyensa cab didn't work
100% or 0%?
is this to make the keys 100% transparent i.e. not see through, or 0% transparent, i.e. completely see through?

possible solution?

CHT 1.8.5 has this option to re-skin the bars, so it appears transparent. no need to install extra cab files to achieve the same thing.

Agreed. CHT is the future. esp on 1.8.5, so easy to change all the backgrounds and skin the top and bottom bar.

Hi, from the home screen, press Menu, Set Wallpaper, then you can skin the task bar and softkeybar at the bottom, it will ask to do a hard reset, reset and fully skinned taskbar and softkeybar.
good luck
