SensorPanel Transparency

[Dutch]

Not sure if you are still maintaining the SensorPanel, but if so, would it be deemed useful to add an option to set the SensorPanel background transparency, to allow to fade it and have just the sensor value be displayed?

The SensorPanel rendering engine doesn't support background transparency.

A disingenuous statement to say the least. If I set the existing option for the Transparency value to greater than zero, it fades the background just fine.

The honest statement would be to say you no longer support the SensorPanel, and will not add the few line of code required to render the background separately from the sensor values.

Please gain a bit more knowledge about our software, try the different features and settings before submitting such bold and obviously incorrect statements.  If you set the SensorPanel transparency setting to a non-zero value in AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / Hardware Monitoring / SensorPanel, the whole SensorPanel will become opaque, not just the background.  So it's not a background transparency setting at all.

Second, if making only the background transparent would involve just a few lines of code, don't you think we would have done it years ago?  It's a lot more complicated than that.

Finally, the SensorPanel -- just like all other features of AIDA64 -- are still actively developed.  Not everything is touched or tweaked daily, since that would mean hiring 100 more developers to work for us, but for example, a few weeks ago we worked on SensorPanel window and SensorPanel item configuration window positioning for multi-monitor systems...

It's an injustice not being able to put transparency on the bottom of the sensor. We could create beautiful animated custom panels, almost like a part of the American dream! Joke. I tried to create it and the best I got was an animated, whitish background, it looked cool, but I personally prefer the static panel to looking at this result. Follow the YouTube link with the image of the moving panel, you can see how beautiful it would be! Note: the moving background is an animated background made in a program called Wallpaper Engine, Animated backgrounds in AIDA64 are a distant dream too. That's it, without more.

É uma injustiça não ter como colocar a transparência no fundo do sensor. Poderíamos criar painéis custom animados lindos, quase como uma parte do sonho Americano! Brincadeira. Eu tentei criar e o máximo que consegui foi um fundo animado e esbranquiçado, ficou legal mas, eu particularmente prefiro o painel estático do que ficar olhando esse resultado.

Segue link do youtube com a imagem do painel em movimento, da para perceber o quanto ficaria bonito! Obs: o fundo em movimento é um plano de fundo animado feito em um programa chamado Wallpaper Engine, Fundos animados no AIDA64 é um sonho distante também.

é isso, sem mais.
