body div#devskin0 hr { }
Hi,
First, I want to say thank you to the people who've 'd me and
'd my work after the interview with OMG! Ubuntu! folks.
As you already know, I released the 1.2 version of my eOS theme a while ago. And while I was mostly satisfied with how close I got to my goal of a pixel-perfect Elementary OS clone, some things left undone due to limitations in GNOME Shell itself, or so I thought.
One of the things I wanted to do is to hide the panel's background while in Overview mode(Slingshot does it; Unity too). Leaving you with a uniform Overview. Apparently, the awesome devs behind GS have already implemented this feature; the default theme does not use it but it's there.
All you have to do is:
#panel .in-overview, #panelActivities {
background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0);
}
Targeting .in-overview will take care of the background and the addition of #panelActivities is optional.
The only thing left is to add a nice transition like so transition-duration: 500; to the #panel .
I'm going to update the theme with this trick and a fixed dash very soon. However, you can see the effect in this Youtube demo(flickering is a recording problem): youtu.be/KKknrRUwU8E
happy hacking.
