TranslucentTB

TranslucentTB is a program for Windows that allows you to customize the appearance of your desktop. The main goal of this software solution is to help you adjust the degree of transparency of the taskbar, which is placed at the bottom of the screen. It is also possible to change the color as well as apply various special effects that are played when opening or maximizing windows.

Customization

It is worth noting that the utility does not come equipped with a standard graphical interface. After installation, the icon will appear in the notification area. By right-clicking on it, you are able to tweak the appearance of the taskbar. The main function enables you to adjust the degree of transparency and choose a preferred color. Moreover, you have the option to modify the hue, hide the search bar, voice assistant icon, and more.

Advanced settings

One of the main advantages of using this tool is the function which automatically changes the transparency and color of the taskbar when working with apps in fullscreen mode. In order to fine-tune the different parameters, you need to open the configuration file using Notepad++. Here you may specify a time delay before the effect plays.

The program gives you the ability to create several profiles with different combinations of parameters and switch between them. In addition, you can add applications to the exclusion list. However, this will not affect the change in the appearance of the panel.
