10.4: Change the Dashboard background?
Authored by: shibboleth on May 02, '05 02:57:02PM

nice fix. i am wondering if there is a way to change the opacity of the dashboard overlay. i want to see much less of my desktop when i switch to the dashboard view.

thanks if there are any ideas on how to change this.

10.4: Change the Dashboard background?

Has anyone found a hint dealing with this? I would LOVE to know how to change the whole overlay opacity myself, but haven't found how to do it yet.

10.4: Change the Dashboard background?

Well, there is a way to do this. I've written a screensaver module, DashSaver, which displays the dashboard and has an optional color/opacity background.

Now set your F12 and/or screen corner to activate your screensaver instead of your dashboard.
