shellres.(The dpi of your device here).dll is responsible for the top bar.
to edit the icons you need to edit that one, it's responsible for the slider icons..
transparency is a function of the theme you use.
Have a look at HDwall for that part.

isn't it possible to edit some things in wm so the topbar becomes transparant?

nobody????

Also tried (almost) all cab's and "tricks" available.......unfortunately nothing worked.....I have QVGA.....

i read it has something to do with themes... now just know how themes work

If you are looking to make the taskbar and / or softkey bar of the homescreen in wm6.5 transparent then you are out of luck as I spent tons of time looking into this and it's not possible.
I did find one way that gives the look of transparency and it looks really cool., but it will require Photoshop / WM registry editor and some math. It's really down to replacing the .png images with sections cut out of your background image giving the impression the bars are not seperate from the background.
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Fo...v/thread/79a35cd3-91db-4941-b8a9-1106a9425615
One downside though: if you set it up in portrait and then rotate the screen it stretches the images... still looking for a way around that, but on a day to day basis I can live with that.
Note: QVGA top and bottom bars are 26px and VGA are 52 in WM6.5. I believe in WM6 it's 25px and 50px, but I cannot check that directly.

Try HERE, its as close as you can get to taskbar transparency.
For Icons, like it was said before, edit the .dll's.

The original question needs to be defined a little clearer, as this answer refers to the 'Windows Default' plugin on your Today Screen, while I referenced changing the top and bottom bars on the Today Screen itself. Hopefully one of these answers the original thread question.

But this only works if you use the 'Windows Default' today screen plugin as per both of the screenshots you attached. If you don't use that today screen plug in and use something like SPB Pocket Plus (screenshot I attached) you still have solid color top and bottom bars even if you loaded in a 'Windows Default' transparent top and bottom bar theme.

Transparent Top/Bottom Today bar

Hi,
First to avoid the confusion, I'm NOT looking for the transparent curtain in TF3D, im not using TF3D.
I've got many nice wallpapers for today screen, however, the top (the bar that contains: start button, network signal, battery icon) & and bottom bar (2 soft button) make this unpleasant.
I've searched around and came across SkinMobile 5 & VJToggleToggle/Today ... however, it looks to me like they don't support WM6.1, nor WVGA.
SkinMobile5 v1.1 is what i tried, and it doesn't provide transparency, and has to be run in background
Could any one offer me a solution to make these bars transparent so I can see my wallpaper fully?
I thought these should be some png files that I can set transparency to?
Thanks...
guys... help please... How come all of my questions never attract any reply?
there are quite a few posts with replies out there mate
I can't seem to find any either if you know of some why not just get a link please instead of post whoring
i too woul be interested in transparent menu/task bars. let me know if you find anything.

Well i can 't find ANY when using search on transparent menu,
so if anybody know a link please . . . .?
i hope due to the wm6.5 wich has actually transparent windows task bar and bottom menue bar
it might be possible to get an mix version also for the diamond.
or only an tsk file which has this "colour for transparence"
would be realy cool
if anyone has it please send me an pm
greets
That's EXACTLY what I was thinking of !!
I've been trying to modify one of the Pocket PC Themes (a .tsk file), but unfortunately couldn't find no transparancy options for the top & bottom bars as you indicated ...
I used Netswap ThemeMaker X (TMX) & Microsoft Pocket PC 2002 Theme Generator.... Perhaps there is an advanced software somewhere that could actually help...
anyone got it solved

Mate,
Did u try this ? This is for WM6.5
Never got a chance to try it myself but looks promising
Give it a try but start from here
It will work on WM 6.1 & 6.5 + any Manila version
It may be possible for WM 6.5 with MaxTTM, but not for WM 6.1, MaxTTM can only change the icons of the taskbar but not the transparency. Hope someone comes out with an answer for the transparency - ( please note that the transparency is required only for the taskbar and the command bar - not the taskbar icons nor the softkeys) - Thankyou.
Edit1: Maybe something like below:
http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/4871/honeycombui.gif
WM6.1 top/bottom bar transparent (not TF3d user)
I would also like to have this transparency... if anyone knows please share... thanks !!
so it's not possible with windows mobile 6.1??

Nope...
use hdwall just use the search function or:
1. Take your wallpaper
2. creat to new pngs one called mysoftkeybar.png and the other mytaskbar.png or whatever you like. (480x52 Pixel)
3.put the top of your wallpaper first 52 rows (sorry for my english) in the taskbar.png and the bottom 52 in the softkeybar.png.
4. Copy theme into \Windows\ folder
5. Edit the registry entries:
\\\registry\HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Softkeybar\SoftKeyBarImage
to your pngs
same for taskbar
and reset device.
but i highly recomend to use hdwall much easier
oh i neary forgot your wallpaper image should now be 480x692 pixel's for the normal today (crop of the bars)
for manila use the normal wallpaper

Guys, the answer to all your wet dreams can be found right here.

Change TF3D Tab color

I´ve modded my HD with nocurtains application and new Icons for the TF3D, however, the squares aroud the icons are still grey, is it possible to chande the color to match the theme?
If you mean like mine then I did it with the attached cab file (or at least I think it was that one that did it).
That´s it :d
How did you chenge the start icon? Have that CAB?
There's a thread about it here. I can't remember without looking but I seem to think the file also has various other icons altered. If you wanted a version with just the HTC logo altered I can do that for you? Or if you want the full coloured top bar I have a more recent version than in that thread that uses files just from the HD when possible.
I already have the colored topbar, but if you can post your version of the colored topbar with the icon changed it would be nice, can you also change the start to "iniciar" ?
Then can you post the cab for changing only the logo?
Sorry about the delay I got a bit sidetracked yesterday.
I've attached two cab files. One replaces the Start icon only (all the other icons are untouched). The other is one I created using just files from the Touch HD when possible (the other version knocking about seemed to use some differing files from the Diamond and also had two 80% battery indicators but no 79% which I've fixed). You need to install SDKCert.cab if you've not already got it. I've changed the word start to "iniciar" with a lowercase I. If you want it with a capital I let me know. I've been using the second one on my phone for a week or so but with Touch HD with no issues but other than me it's completely untested.
Also, the modified files are from a WWE ROM using English. I believe other locales use different files.
this thread will be moved to the theme , software and application section
It looks amazing
Please, send me the cab with Capital "I"
Can you explain me how do you make this cab files? To complicated for a noob?
Here's the same cab with full colour icons, HTC start icon and a capital I in Iniciar. You need to install SDKCert.cab if you've not already got it.
To create the top bar took a bit of figuring out at first but once I'd got my head around it it's fairly easy. All the guides are on the forums somewhere. I'll have a look to see if I can find the ones I used.
Once the files are modified creating the actual cab file to install them is very simple thanks to an excellent program called Quickcab that is also on the forums. You tell it which files you want copying to the phone and where you want them, create any registry keys that may need altering (this top bar has one key that changes the amount of battery statuses to 101). You then give it a description for Remove Programs and a file name and click create.
Hi friend! I liked your botton icons. Where can I pick this theme up? Does it include Stocks icon?
Thanks
It's from an excellent Diamond theme by DjOuBhAa called Simply Black. When the Touch HD first came out someone adapted the full theme but I only wanted the bottom icons so I took out the manilla files for the icons and made my own cab file. Unfortunately it doesn't include a Stocks tab icon (the original didn't either).
I've attached the cab I used as well as No Curtains to remove the top and bottom curtains and Pamas Transparant Slider to give a transparent slider and remove the background on the icons not currently highlighted.
It also looks very good on a lighter background
Hello, in the transparent slider i see an whit symbol only over the indizies-tab.
All others are ok. Can you help, that all tabs are blank, when sliding?
Thanks
Manfred
Thanks a lot for the icons and all the work you had.
There is only one other thing I would want it to change if possible, the battery icon, I saw one that looks better in my opinion, it´s somewhere around xda, but can´t find the link, please see post #2202 in the following link.

I've just double checked my Remove Programs and also my Cab folder and they're definitely the two I installed (apart from the actual icons) to get my slider as it is. The only thing I can guess at is if the order you install them in could make a difference? Maybe try them the other way around?

Transparent taskbar and bottombar like wm6.5 possible?

Hi Folks,
first thanks for the beta of wm 6.5 which brings me to one question
on this picture posted by Cloudyfa you can see that the startbar and bottombar is transparent.
http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb271/Cloudyfa/BetaWM65.jpg
is it possible due to file exchanges to get this also working on our now 2.03 diamond versions.
do you think it is possible.
i tried searching of an alphatransparent colour in wm6. so that i may be change it but no luck so far.
but when i tested wm6.5 i realized with the transparent bottom and top. my handyscreen looked even bigger.
would be nice to hear or see, if someone could make this possible

it's not transparent
in the first screenshot it's transparent.. just look
if u look very closely at the bottom right, ull notice that the boat doesn't quite align, also the text in the center disappears behind the bottom bar, this leads me to believe it isn't relay transparent but just a cropped picture that's the same as the background. However when i change the background those bottom bars change as well, but there still not aligned properly
this neverminds.
it's only 1px so you'll never notice it
anyway. it must be somehow possible. also when it is an the mainscreen.
but this would be awsome if someone could possible make an cab.
or just upload the tsk file. maybe there is a colour set as alphacolour.
dev's pls do it for us.
These screenshots are fake. I'm not going to tell you why - you should be able to find out for yourself.
Believe me or not, I don't care, but you'll see when 6.5 comes out, that I was right.

dude just check out the news. wm6.5 is official by MS and they have even given a demo of it on touch diamond 2.
the pics are real.
It isn't fake, but i believe it wasn't implemented properly by Microsoft, it hink the top and bottom bars just take part of ure wallpaper and set it as their backgrounf instead of actually being transparent, but it's a similar effect.
cmon guys.. have some sense!
1. they are not fake. I'm running this exact ROM right now
2. taskbar is not transparent. If any of you have used SE phones in the past, like K800, you'll know, it's just a theme which changes the graphics in the taskbar. looks nice as long as you like the main background. If you change the background, those cropped pictures in the taskbar remain there and look [email protected]

exactly my point, the OS may be real, but the transparency is fake
did you try changing your homescreen wallpaper to your own image. what do you see?
is it's also transparent.
Transparency is not fake and its real.
See what's new in windows mobile 6.5
The transparency you see isn't a "real transparent". The new CHome (Titanium home ui) creat that from your wallpaper to have it look like transparent. Anyone using WM6.5 can do a quick test by uncheck Titanium in Setting\Today to see
IMO, M$ already messed up by not doing a 'real' transparant bar

I think what you guys need is this editor. It's simple to use. Just install in storage card and use it to make your top, bottom or curtain fully transparent.
P/S: I install to Device because I have to re-install it whenever I upgrade or Hard reset. Dont know why.

You need to install Dusk 6.5 Theme.zip as well.
Unzip the file and add the contents to \My Documents\Themes\Dusk (make sure it reads this way only - no lower level or will not work) and then go to Today settings and select one of the themes. It works well on R9 (no issues with Manila 2.1). Do not change the background picture however to those included in the theme as this causes these black bars to be duplicated.
There are some added benefits of this theme, it changes the scroll bars to a nice glossy black and changes the highlights in most screens from that terrible green which makes it impossible to read the contents to a nice deep black.

You can try with nuenobar1.3 or 2.0, it depends on your ROM I think. For me (TouchHD and WM6.5 ROM) it doesn't work... Maybe you can have more chance.

If you are on WM6.5 try the Dusk theme from my link posted above. It works.
I already have Dusk Theme and it's ok.
I'm sorry I thought that the topic of this thread was the cancelation of the Black Bottom Bar... And I suggested NueNoBar 1.3 or 2.0. It's a mistake, sorry.

No problem. It is not that clear I guess as to whether the OP wants to add or remove the bars. I assumed as they are running on the standard ROM that is was to add rather than remove the bars???

Hola,
1) the Top Icons as you call them, are "hidden" and included within the dll´s of your device. If you want to change them, you can either learn how to make taskbars (extract images from them, easy, but then mod them, also easy, and finally "put them back in and make the taskbar work - not so easy). You might find up to 1500 or 2000 images within the taskbar. Some of the images can be found in windows root though ;-)
It´s a lot easier to find a "proper" taskbar with the icons you want, or and this I would not recommend at all - play and check which dll is responsible for which iconm and mix them.
Messing with these can really screw your device, so if you don´t know, don´t do it
2) Transparency for the BackGround of ClockArray
- you can edit the manila file for the background your self, then you would have to decide wethere transparent or visible, and keep the "other" version on SD card, so that when ypou wanted to change that, you simply "replace" the one in windows from SD Card
- or if using CHT, you can install Poyensa´s CHT Tweaks (beta) and use the config possibilities in it to make it transparent or visible on the go, as well as many other interesting configuration options within and for CHT Widgets...
3) That is a rather tricky one because it´s hidden in the mode 9 file for that tab, and maybe also referenced by lua files and other mode9, and this tweaks are discussed in specific threads so that the average user is not missled into modding elements that could mess his or her sense(s)
4) You already have those icons provided by you. The are in the cab from Keko
If you check the files with CFCGui you will find up to 5 or 6 icons that are "almost" the same for each tab. As posted in the other thread:
he slider cab / or slider elements consist of the following groups/items:
- Slider bar icons when selector is not "on" them
- Icons on selector when scrolling over bar icon (these are transparent when using transparent slider, except for calendar because of date)
- Midscreen Icons
and last but not least, the ones within the settings tab and tab config personalize options
If you could tell me, which ones you would like to change, I could provide you with the list for them

Which manila files are these?
Hi, manila files are located in the windows, if you change (copy paste) remember to backup the original ones.
This cab is for transparent bar operator, just to start ....... To me it works 100% with CHT. to make transparent the other bars, there are many cab we work with hd mini. There is a cab I think I ANASTASIA that makes everything transparent screen, calendar of 70%. the only thing that does not work with hd mini is the digital clock. My setup always with CHT.

If the cab is OK, it should restore the o files after uninstall - but you should ALWAYS know the files that are beeing modded/replaced, and if you don´t have your ROM files broken down already on PC, then you should back them up from device first
FlipClock background has two files:
BackGround normal = "31794a12_manila"
BackGround when "pressed" = "0b6f5c5e_manila"
Hi BHS,
thx fpr this file names. The Flip Clock background files are well known
I am searching the files for the top bar. In my Screen marked with number 2
Regards

You are still on CHT right?
Sure, check out 573d289b_manila It´s a manila qtc (image) file that can easily be modded to suit your needs for the Home Tab. And in one of Gabbana´s posts (actually two posts, one cab and one zip) where he offers transparent top bars for all tabs except the Music Tab... Sense Transparent top bar tab Maybe you have included them already in your collection of Gabbana´s work?

You,re welcome. If you try files, just remember to always backup the original ones, and if you are not sure about the origin or the changes in those files, replace them one by one and check for results...
This way, if "undesired" side effects happen, you can simply replace the file by the initial one
Unless a cab / install does a lot to your registry... In this case, an uninstall sometimes will not revert your registry back, but you can check in the cab for the changes.
