Sorry for being dumb, but I'm a novice at Vista (dual-boot it now and
then). How do you make the taskbar in Vista transparent? I've been wanting to do this for ages and would love to know how. Simple instructions, please. I'm absolutely all thumbs :-) TIA. Russel |

iTunes and other programs taskbar utilities shut off the transparency. FireFox, Opera, Winamp and others when enabled do the same. http://www.softpedia.com/get/Desktop...-TaskBar.shtml http://www.codegazer.com/vistaglazz/downloads/ Get beta 1.1 A trick : http://www.winmatrix.com/forums/inde...showtopic=6090 "Nial" wrote in message ...

Right click your desktop, select Personalize. Go to Windows Color and Appearance and check the Enable Transparency box. Also, to get your taskbar transparent, you can't have any applications having the main focus. -- comphulk |
