{BBI}Nexus{BBI} Posted January 6, 2010 Report Share Posted January 6, 2010 System Settings--> Advanced--> Desktop Theme Details. Â If you have something like the Glassified theme already installed, you can select the panel theme (which is transparent) from it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawklord Posted January 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 thanks for the reply, no, all i have is the 4 standard ones - i'm using AYA at the moment, which seems to be 'nearly' transparent, any ideas or recommendations on any themes i could try ?

ianw1974 Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Try the glassified one that was suggested, downloadable here: http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Glassified?content=81388 you can search this website and perhaps find some themes to suit if you don't want to use glassified.

{BBI}Nexus{BBI} Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Install glassified or any other transparent theme. Under System Settings--> Advanced--> Desktop Theme Details, click the Get New Themes button and browse available themes. Â Glassified and Transparent Grey are there.

Artificial Intelligence Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 I'll suggest Air for transparent panels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ruel24 Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Air is very nice. Also, the background color can make it look not so transparent. If it's solid black behind it, for instance, it looks milky white and not transparent at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
