Edit: Yeah, I actually meant "completely transparent" rather than opaque. I already know how to make it opaque, just edit the CSS bellow...

This is what I'd like to happen:

221845

It is probably not noticeable, but there is no dark shadow all over my wallpaper. So when I go to the overview, I can actually look at my wallpaper, rather than a more depressing, darkened version of it.

I just can't find the option to replace the partial opacity of the overview into complete transparency. Ok, I did find the CSS entry for the overview:



#overview {
/* stuff*/
}


But if I replace its background with a completely transparent one, it does not work. So, there are TWO objects getting painted in the overview.

You are about to ask, if I have a screenshot of it, then I can already do it. Well,... kinda, here is what I did:



#overview {
spacing: 12px;
background: url('/home/vx/wallpaper') ;
}


It is just a workaround. But I would have to replace the url() everytime I change my wallpaper. There is got to be an easier way, right?
