CHRISB1 We've not (yet) seen a possibility to do so by just manipulating an original system file.

	Dec 2 2007	SANTAB I don't know if this is related to Leopaque but sometimes but Spotlight bar is now underneath the menubar. You still see the lower end of it and if you open/close a couple of times it eventuallyreturns to the foreground. I don't really care but I got me a little confused when I saw it the first time happen. (Version 2.1)		+1

	Nov 19 2007	TDOMINEY Thank God! The "textured" look should be the default menu bar style in 10.5, IMO. Looks so much better. (Version 2.0.1)		+1

	Nov 18 2007	SANTAB thanks, that 2.0 looks like what I was hoping for. I was still with an earlier version so I might have missed that feature. Greetings from the macnemo forum :-) (Version 2.0b)		+1

CHRISB1 Gruss zurück - das mit dem Slider kann man evtl. noch optimieren, aber erst kommt noch eine zweite Beta, die einen kleinen Fehler ausmerzt.

Gruss aus Luzern ;-)

AETNARIA You purchase and install the OS upgrade, Leopard. It's an OS thing, not an Intel thing.

CHRISB1 RTFM SCNR ;-)

	Nov 17 2007	SANTAB @ChrisB: Is this the macosxhints plist thing? A wrapper? If yes, you should enable 1 and 0 which supposedly offers the Tiger menu bar. (Version 1.2.1)		0

CHRISB1 Both options are available in Leopaque.

0 = Opacity Textured

1 = Opacity White
(Version 1.2.1)

Nov 17 2007

CHRISB1 By the way:

The Tiger menu bar is about 0.62 ;-)

We may implement this (a slider) in v2.0.
(Version 1.2.1)

GANNET Eh? The Tiger menu bar is quite different, with a glossy finish rather than a grey gradient.
