Hey, i realize this is an old question, but i've searched the forum and around the net and I honestly can't find an answer.
How do you get a transparent panel in KDE 3.1? Isn't it supposed to be a basic inlucuded feature? I upgraded to KDE 3.1 from 3.0
my panel says it's "KDE Panel 1.1 (Using KDE 3.1.0)"
but there's no option anywhere for having it be transparent. what am i missing?
Unfortunately they still need more help in that area, to allow a better control of transparency. For now you have to set MENU transparency which also effects the panel as well. To get to that open up the KDE control panel, goto Apperance & Themes, Under that branch goto Syle. In styles depending what your using will let you transparent or not, I found some did not let you. Anyhow in the style area you see a tab called "EFFECTS" click on that. That were you can set transparency for the menu's etc. Its by far not the best control of what gets it and what does not! I personally am waiting on a panel only transperancy with options like No Icon transparent when panel is. . stuff like that. I hope this helps.
