[Q] How to make the background transparent when scrolling within TF3D? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps

Hi, i wanted to make the curtains transparent, so i got NoCurtains.cab from some thread here, but when i start scrolling between the buttons (home, people, internet etc.) the whole screen goes darker except for the bottom curtain.
To describe better what i mean i included a screenshot:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Notice how the bottom curtain is transparent while the rest of the screen is dark. This is even more visible on the phone itself so my question is: is it possible to make the whole screen overlay transparent when scrolling? Or maybe there is mod already made for that, but i cant find it anywhere.
Also i tried some other mods that make the curtains transparent, but none of them made any difference.
Thanks in advance

I've been looking for this too, or if you could just make the bottom curtain the same "tinted" look but still keep the transparent slider/curtain.

To make the transparency amount the same, i will need to find the image files of the overlay, but if i find them, i will make them fully transparent so..
edit: im using the manila editor, but i cant find the images that are displayed when scrolling between the tabs. Does anyone have idea which images are displayed in this condition?

I've a Vodafone HTC Touch Diamond. I want to know how to remove the white shade while sliding between the pages. There some Panorama background and it doesn't look good while I sliding it. Are there transparent manila file somewhere? I can't find it in this forum.
The manilafile I found here doesn't work.
Thank you

Changing top icon colors.

This is really cool man. rltoday ?
The Icons are graphics and you can found them in windowsFolder. think you have to change the colors of the graphics an then put it back in windows folder.
Yes, it is rltoday running inside UltimateLaunch. Soon as I get it all figured out I will post everything.
I can not find these icons in the windows folder. What names should I be looking for?
They are at the Windows dir

Look for the bmp files in the Windows directory, some of them are gprs.bmp, gprs_snc_PPC.bmp, gprs_connect.bmp

i see u like the styling of Bell&Ross lol
Yes, I do like the styling of Bell&Ross. I made the skin for Retro clock and just kept on going.
Thanks for everyones help but tracking down those icons is not as easy as it sounds. So I decided to go a new direction using Wisbar Advance Desktop.
Wow, nice job with the design... looks great.
nice! this was your best option as the signal bars take the background color, so even if you found the required icons, you'd need to change your background for your windows to blue in order to get everything to match.
you cant find the icons because there are none. to edit the colors of the signal bars, data arrows, etc.. you have to edit .dll files. i cant remember which .dll files off the top of my head but i think one of them is tapre96.dll somethin like that. use reshacker to edit the .dll files

My White ThrottleLauncher TF3D skin :)

Okay. I made a white/black theme. Here is the home ss:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This is with the flash clock
Notes:
Non-flash clock is black and a bit messed up
Black Large icons
White buttons
On music page - flipped volume up and volume down keys (Vol + is on the left and Vol - is on the right)
Silver/White/Black Back and icons on landscape
Comm Manager - In the process of changing the last two icons and adding the words on and off.
Programs and Settings - White back to icons. In the process of creating new icons for Settings.
See attached pictures for what I mean
If you have suggestions, feel free to post them here.
Here's my files: Link
Instructions:
1. Backup original TouchFlo3D folder in \ThrottleLauncher\Setups.
2. Download my modified TF3D file.
3. Disable ThrottleToday in Start>Settings>Personal>Today>Items.
4. Extract to \ThrottleLauncher\Setups.
5. Go back to settings and enable ThrottleToday.
6. Enjoy!
very good really
thanks alot for sharing this
A little peak on an update
hoooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwww tks....
hmm... perhaps you can put it in a subdirectory under the skin, and named it as Bright under the tf3d directory. Of course, xml editing need to be done.
Alternatively, you can even create another directory similar to Touchflo3d.
Well done, and keep up the good work!!
Great work!! Thanks!!

You have to appreciate people's hard work Nice theme..keep it on
How did you change your windows logo on the start menu I like yours about 100000 times more than the normal one
I actually use Garmin's roms. You can ask him how to change the logo. I think it's a png file attached to a .dll

Nice work. Keep it up

hi, ive searched the fourm n i cudnt find anything about this.....
When i had a HTC TOUCH it had a Glossy 3D like taskbar and bottom bar but on my diamond i cant seem to get to become 3D . i even used the cab whisch was for my touch BLACK GLOSSY TASKBAR
can some one plz help me out!!
below is a pic of sum1 who has got it but i cant find out who!!!!
this look very cool m8..i was trying to find some information on this..i think this may be a little deeper work with some of the files on diamond. This guy either did this in photoshop or he actually managed to rewrite some files that are crucial to these nice icons..btw have you got any info on this?
Wallpaper...
Fancy sharing that wallpaper?
pretty simple...just choose a different theme in the today settings. the .tsk file that uses the flat black will stay flat black since they are set in the registry for that file...running glossy black will not change it. however, if you choose say the windows default theme in the today settings (start/settings/today), hit ok. go into file explorer and run run glossy black.exe (attached), you will be in business. try it...you could also search for black .tsk themes throughout the forum...there are a ton out there with lots of cool backgrounds. hope this helps...

Great theme. Thanks for all your work.
Weather
Does anyone know how they got the weather to display the next 4 days within the tf3d tab instead of having to go to a different screen?
Hey - just installed it, it looks amazing. I had some issues that were the purpose of this post, but I reflashed my ROM, made a few setting changes and tried again. Issues resolved.
For the person that asked about wallpaper, I think that because this uses a panoramic wallpaper, you have to actually overwrite manila files to change it. Search "pano" or panorama.
Flashing to a ROM that uses HD manila will allow the four days of weather on the main screen. If there are other ways to do it, I don't know about them.
Hia thank for your work. I've a problem in fact in home my clock remain on "am 0.00" all time. Why? How can i resolve?
somone know where to find the font that he uses in the theme? i can't find it anywhere, help if u can, thx in advance!!

Totally forgot about this thread until I came upon this:
http://wmpoweruser.com/?p=15092
It links to two cabs that moves the slider to the middle or bottom of the screen. I chose the middle of the screen as this position is easier for one hand unlocking.
D.I.Y starter how-to
First, great cab very useful, thanks.
Little issue, I installed the cab, then removed the program to see which one I would like better. For some reason I cant cant get the original lock screen back up. The phone locks, but no slider bar. I did a soft reset but no joy, if anybody knows how to get the original back it would be much appreciated.
thanks

heres the original, and also the original but with animated side arrows, which were commented out when it shipped. Dont forget to remove the word before .cpr
Note - using the lockscreen with animated arrows causes the music player to stop/start every 20 seconds or so when playing with the screen locked, so if you use sound at all dont bother with teh animated arrows.
Much appreciated, samsamuel.
thank you so much spoogedemon ,that's what I was looking for
