99.9 to 100% Transparency

[Jimmy1720]

Hey all, long time viewer, first time poster.

I have Rainmeter, and Enigma 4 loaded currently. I have my Gcal on my taskbar loaded and tweaked to my liking, but would like to add a fade-in sidebar Gcal below it. The problem is I can only do 90% transparency, so on darker walls I still see it.

How can I fix this? I'm fairly familiar with code so just tell me what to put and where and I should be able to handle it.

Thanks for your help.

Here's what it looks like.

You can get much finer control over skin transparency if you edit the settings directly in Rainmeter.ini.

Right-click the Rainmeter tray icon and click Edit settings to open the file. There's a section for each skin, so look for [Enigma\Sidebar\Reader\Gcal]. You should see a line in that section like this:

Code: Select all

AlphaValue=25

The AlphaValue sets the opacity of the skin, between 0 (fully transparent) and 255 (fully opaque). :)

Thanks for replying. All I found was this:

Code: Select all

[Enigma\Taskbar\Reader\Gcal]
Active=5
WindowX=388
WindowY=0
ClickThrough=0
Draggable=1
SnapEdges=1
KeepOnScreen=1
AlwaysOnTop=0

Nothing about Alpha values. I found the Rainmeter.ini in Appdata/Roaming.

You can just add AlphaValue yourself, then. :)

Ahh perfect, I have a fix, with a little programming knowledge to go with it !

Thank you!
