how do you change the shade of the transparent screen?

**ou2mame** · #1 (**permalink**) 02-25-2009, 09:57 AM

when you switch tabs, the screen has a transparent background behind the icon, is there any way to change the color? i'd like it to be somewhat of a blue, but i don't know what file the graphic is in.

Hello Hello..

The shade graphic that you're referring to is located in the 43aedb65_manila.

It's 2x2 pixels.

I've attached a stock one that you can change to your liking, I wasn't really sure what kind of "blue" you wanted so I left it stock.

Let me know if you need any help with it

ok so i extract the image, load it in photoshop, but it appears to be just a blank box with no layer. i don't even know how to go about editing this lol... any ideas?

Haha.. actually the image is just a 2x2 pixel image.

So, fill in the 'blue' colour you want then using Manila Editor replace it.

If you give me the exact blue you want from this colour post:

I'll replace it for you and all you have to do is drop that badboy using Total Commander into your /Windows directory and soft reset (you know the rest).

Let me know,

Haha.. that's alright.

Here's the edited manila with the blue you wanted.. just a note though, the shade will always be somewhat transparent, so don't expect to see a solid blue (just the properties of the original shade).

Let me know if this works with your theme, it's the exact colour you requested (27408B) but I find it's always best to see on the phone.

Cheers,
