Saturday, April 24, 2004 by John Chan | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Hi guys. I want to make a sysmetrix skin with a transparent background. (so theres just text, no background skin) Is this possible? I made a rectangle bitmap with the pink colour but it doesn''t work

Thanks guys

Unfortunately, what you want to do is not possible with Sysmetrix right now, though it's a cool idea. The background bitmap determines what will be visible in a Sysmetrix theme. Anything, text, buttons, gauges, bargraphs, etc., that is configured to be over an area that is magic pink on the background image will not be visible.

Thanks for the reply,

Well, I guess I'll make the wallpaper background the skin for it then it'll look like its transparent.

Look in the lower-left corner of my desktop screenshot in my profile. If that`s what you`re looking for, it`s called CoolMon. http://coolmon.arsware.org/
