Hi all,
the launcher and dash and HUD are all very pretty and pick out colours 
from the wallpaper (with a terrible algorithm that shouldn't work as 
well as it does but that is another story), if you turn the panel 
transparency down to 0.01 you get a similar effect in the panel (turning 
it to zero messes things up a bit though) so this is rather sweet 
looking. The dropdown global menu and indicators are however big square 
cornered grey slabs

can we make those pick up chameleon colours, with maybe white text like 
the HUD? Even better to look just like the HUD/Dash with the chunky grey 
outline, blur background and curves that blend it into the 
launcher/panel frame.

Alan.
