i'm trying to put a transparent background on the analog clock in Clockwork and can't seem to get it to work. I created a semi-transparent png and set it as the background and it showed up solid. I have gdi installed, so I don't know what to do. Am i missing something? If nobody knows I'll e-mail the author. just thought i'd ask here first.

does the module support True Transparency? not many really do...if it does not you will need to use something like grdTransparent.

well, clockwork doesn't support per-pixel alpha :( if u want to make it transparent then use eg grdtransparent, but per-pixel transparency isn't an option (unless u fake it with a layercut below the clock ;)

grdtransparent wasn't exactyly what i had in mind.
According to the readme you can set a "completely transparent bg".?? Guess i'll just ask the author to clarify. Thanks for the help.
