I can see through through the DF Taskbar to my beloved background.... ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/multi-taskbar-no-transparency-on-vista-aero/?ID=2b3560c4-58c3-4922-9eda-9699544653c0#4 Mon, 06 Apr 2009 18:17:55 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/multi-taskbar-no-transparency-on-vista-aero/?ID=2b3560c4-58c3-4922-9eda-9699544653c0#4 DisplayFusion I just wanted to follow-up on this to let you know that DisplayFusion 3.0.2 has translucency now. It's not the fancy Vista Aero translucency, but it's a step in the right direction. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/multi-taskbar-no-transparency-on-vista-aero/?ID=2b3560c4-58c3-4922-9eda-9699544653c0#3 Mon, 16 Mar 2009 23:00:18 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/multi-taskbar-no-transparency-on-vista-aero/?ID=2b3560c4-58c3-4922-9eda-9699544653c0#3 DisplayFusion Kewl. It's not really something that bothers me, but I thought you might like to know. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/multi-taskbar-no-transparency-on-vista-aero/?ID=2b3560c4-58c3-4922-9eda-9699544653c0#2 Fri, 13 Mar 2009 14:32:53 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/multi-taskbar-no-transparency-on-vista-aero/?ID=2b3560c4-58c3-4922-9eda-9699544653c0#2 DisplayFusion This is something I am working on for a future version. If I'm unable to provide true Aero translucency, I will fall back and use the XP opacity method to allow the taskbar to be see-through. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/multi-taskbar-no-transparency-on-vista-aero/?ID=2b3560c4-58c3-4922-9eda-9699544653c0 Fri, 13 Mar 2009 03:56:53 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/multi-taskbar-no-transparency-on-vista-aero/?ID=2b3560c4-58c3-4922-9eda-9699544653c0 DisplayFusion Just a small thing, the multi-taskbar doesn't display as transparent on Vista when running the fancy Aero style.

The Vista taskbar will display with transparency when no applications are maximised, and with no transparency otherwise. The mutli-taskbar only ever displays without transparency. ]]>
