Left Hand Side of Start Menu

October 16, 2013 2:49:19 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

Since everybody was great in answering my last question, I thought I would ask about something else. My question deals with the left side of the start menu - programs list. When I hit the "All Programs" button I get a solid color (with a list of my programs). I have been able to place an image behind this wall of color and it shows through at the top and bottom but I would like to remove the color wall. How can I do that?

I'm assuming you did this in SKS. I may be wrong but I think that part of the start menu would need an image already on the graphic.

Unfortunately, can not do in sks.Solid color only.

 

Could manipulate the start ani to work with your background perhaps.You need sks pro for that feature. This goes on as a top layer. Maybe try a glyph in that area. just thoughts,

 

This animation section is under .....Tools--start menu animation builder pro..FYI, just in case.

Correct and I tried to insert an image (it does show up behind the solid wall of color). I used a png and bmp image in "Left Hand Side - All Program Mode" but to no avail.

Due to the area scrolling the background has to be a solid colour.

Just curious, how is that area different than an explorer background which scrolls?

Is this even possible to do or is it like adding an image to the left side of an explorer folder - not possible?
