Dear Developers,
Good day to you.
Presently I am using Mr. Twolf's 3d rotational clock in my home. For nice background look, weather area disturbs. I like my home to be look like fully transparent. ( clock, weather, slide bar).
or
weather area, can you please make transparent - for full background viewing ?. I have attached my screenshot here.
Really thanking you for your innovations.

Hello, should be possible......look in this thread......http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=575723
... I think this works!?
1. At first disable TouchFlo in Settings/Today.
2. Then copy the 3 png's included in my zip
to Windows folder and overwrite existing files.
3. Restart your device and enable TouchFlo again.
Please tell me if it works correctly.

Overwrite? Surely, backing the original images up first would be a smart bit of advice to add
Thank you brothers
Dear Mr. Mielnoir,
Thank you for your help. I have attached my screenshots here.
It is better than before. Anyway , for me, it will be best, when there is no background shade (box shade) for clock & weather.
I am expecting your help.
Dear Mr. Frank,
Thanks for the thread help. I am looking now.
Thank you.
Dear Mr. UPPY,
Thanks for your advice. I already back up my theme by using M2D Customizer.

Hmm, the semi-transparent weather widget looks nice...thanks for the picture..... going to do that tonight aswell....
and see you have invisible top bar......
?
i don't know why looks like Yours? normally there should
be no glossy background.
all png's are empty pictures.
Good remark.....standard weather widget is a bit transparent.....but not as much as on pictures imo....
Thank you Dears
Thank you Dears.
Mr. Mielnoir,
Actually, while copying of your files to windows folder, windows denied to overwrite. I think I have to use 'Total Commander'.
Anyway Now I changed my theme, which is designed by Mr. Antonda.
Also I have used Mr. Johan's black theme. I have attached my screenshot here.
THANK YOU MR. MIELNOIR, MR. ANTONDA, MR. JOHAN, MR.TWOLF, and MR.FRANK
Theme looks great and indeed for overwriting files in windows folder use total commander.......

TouchFlo (Manilla) transparent program slide bar
Hi Guys,
Can you help me with a solution to make my MEGA bottom bar and slide transparent ?
I modified hh_fw_tab_bg_fill.png and hh_fw_tabbtn.png to be transparent, but the result on MEGA is a black :-(
I've tried Transparant Bottom Bar.cab, same result.
I've tried NoCurtains.cab, no changes.
Thanks for helping.
Hello, think I went the same route as you...tried them all but no succes.....since most solutions described are for other devices....there is a very nice tool for the HD2.....it let's you do exactly what we want ......but can not be applied to QVGA result is you will hard reset your device....
I give you the thread anyway http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493011
So my answer would be: not possible at the moment.....I also looked at other HTC forums btw......
Oh forgot to tell you...I managed to get the slider transparent...but that does not look nice in relation with the slider bar because the icons are not on the same height.....
Update transparent slider bar
Reading through this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=575723 saw that there are themes which do not have a transparent slider bar but people skinned their bar exactly as to the corresponding background of the theme so it looks transparent......
Don't know how to do that......but you can give it a try.....

this works great for the hometab. but wehen you slide to another tab the background of the slider slides also. if your wallpaper is unicolor is this area this is a solution for you.

I thought about this idea... I will give it a try ;-)
I feel like "cheating" a little bit ;-)
The problem is if I change the wallpaper... However, I will keep searching
Indeed....I also wanted a transparent slider bar but having read everything think I abstain from it. Unless there comes a genius who can make a tool like that of the HD2......
btw if you see what "they" have in customizations......
100 % transparent home is possible. Thanks to xda developers

Dear all, as Ramsuresh mentions there is now a tool with which you can make your homescreen bars, sliders, buttons etc invisible...see this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=688313
Ilegal....with this new tool you can easily makes changes but has to be done after every wallpaper change indeed. Also when the theme is not "evenly" coloured you see that in other tabs...
Ramsuresh nice themes and great work.....

Hi all, I saw this screenshot in one of apps on here. I tried search but couldn't find the info, what apps do I use to change the icons on the taskbar to be buttons like this screenshot?
http://www.imgboot.com/image.php?u=Co0kieMonster&i=screen01.jpg
That's a taskbar modification called Mystic Genius, and can be found in the following thread, along with a ton of great stuff, including icon sets and other taskbar mods (gotta scroll down a bit).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=639002
It's a touch problematic for some, I've read! Also, for WinMo 6.5.x I think you'll need to do some registry tweaks or else the "speaker/volume" icon won't show up! Good luck!
or try this:

Hi there!
I love my HD2 and I wouldn't change it to anything else. But there's one thing that drives me crazy when I look at the homescreen. It's the Sense 2.5 default slider icons.
Does anyone know where can I find the original slider icons (icons+slider background) from TouchFlo3D from Blackstone or any other VGA/WVGA device? I'm trying to find it, but all I have is some modified versions. I'd really love to have good old TF3D slider... Please, help me with that or at least tell me what to enter in the search engine (I've tried slider / icon / iconset / default / manila / stock etc. in every possible combination - I get tousands of threads and posts and no answer).
I'm sure, that the original PNG files for the icons are somewhere there, but I simply can't manage to look through all these thousands of posts that i find and the search doesn't help at all.
If someone provides me with the link to these icons I will make a package with only a slider using HDWall and put it here for other users like me trying to find it...
Or maybe there are some ready manila files to put straight to the /windows folder to overwrite the default Sense 2.5 icons? If anyone seen that, please, provide the link.
Thanks in advance!
Oh, and please, don't say anything like "why don't you try GTX or Dusk or sth". I tested it already, but I just want the old slider, not the full theme...

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?

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.

Ok, so I tried to make a transparent or glass-like slider so that the background could be seen without affecting the tab icons though. The result is that the slider is now shown Black, although it is transparent (as you can see in the images below)!!!
Is it possible to make it somehow? I've from some members that it is not.
However I found icons for the clock and weather that are transparent as you can see (credits go to user antonda).
So what the heck???
hey!
very nice thing you tried to do there,however how did you manage to make the clock and below the clock transparent?I'm, using htc touch 2.If you can give me some tips on PM,it would be great.Thanks.
As I mentioned before all credits for my theme go to antonda and his theme that I'm using can be found here [SKINS]NEW Touchflo 2D 2.0 ONLY(Weather/Flipclock) Skins/Themes, posts 1145 and 1146.

Thank You for that link
With Jumba's "I C Thru U" app u can have a full clear slide bar.
Alternatively (manually) you can edit "hh_fw_tab_bg_fill.png" file under "windows" folder!
You cant have "Glass" effect (semi-transparency) on M2D slider and let me explaine you why: M2D seems to be capable of reading only png8 files for slide bar, any png that you ll load to it it ll auto-converted to png8 so M2D can read it and you ll get your transparency png as an RGB colored image!
What is png8 file? It's a png at 8bit (256 colors) also known as web-png. Transparency at 8bit (256 colors) is pixelated so it sucks and it hasn't "Glass" effect in any case!
I hope i helped you!
Damn! And I thought we were getting close to find a solution... what I don't like with Jumba's app is that "cut-off" effect that is created when you slide the slider
Any way thank you very much for the info!!

im not really get it! what did u mean with "cut-off" effect? u mean that in "sliding" bar still stays invisible? can u post some screens?
With Jumba's app, as you can see in the first image, the slider image looks fine, but when i slide and go to the location for example, the slider image looks like it is cut-off and moved. It is not aligned with the rest of the background.
And as I understand there is no solution to that!

Aw ok! Thats cause Jumpa's app actually "cuts" a 240x38 part of image and replace it to M2D's slider. Maybe there is a solution for that im on it...
EDIT: I manage to make an Alpha Transparent PNG8 but still M2D denied to read transparent effect...
@ VIRUSPLUS:so,I I understand that with M2D you cannot have transparent slider,but you can with I C Thru(the thing is,I couldn't make it work on my mega).The question is,if it's this alternatively way (to edit hh_fw_tab_bg_fill.png) how can I edit that png file,in order to have a nice and no trouble transparent slider?

You can't have transparent slider in any case.
You can have just a fake "transparency" with I C Thru or by editing "hh_fw_tab_bg_fill.png" just for home tab! What this means and what I C Thru does? Look at image that i attach
aaa..ok ,now I understand.Thank you for clarification
ok, I hope I uploaded the right cab file (I have a little chaos here...). Please backup your files!
I created this theme from two other themes from this site (Jumba Bluesteel and Black Waterdrops (sadly, I can't find it, but I used parts of the slider from there)).
My homescreen is nearly empty, because I want to see my background image. If you have problems with the homesettings.xml please let me know.
If I understand you correctly, this theme should help you with your slider problem.

P.S. I added to images. I don't have a screenshot tool so sorry for the bad quality. As you can see the number for the sms isn't quite nice, but I hasn't been in the mood for the correction
