Do you think that if instead of not drawing the background of the panel, we were drawing a completely transparent background but disable blurring and shadows for It, the same problems arise? I use it currently in the panel, and actually it is almost doing its job... If you wanna give it a go, it is in: https://github.com/psifidotos/plasmaqmldock[1] And this is a screenshot for the panel that has NowDock plasmoid in it, I loaded a full transparent desktop theme and disabled the blur effect. http://imgur.com/KuiKcQD[2] Cheers, michail -------- [1] https://github.com/psifidotos/plasmaqmldock [2] http://imgur.com/KuiKcQD
