breadcrums dropdown scheme

hans_bakker
A question from one of my customers:

the dropdown menu, is it possible to make this transparent so you can
see the underlying screen?

Thanks in advance for your answer,

regards,
Hans

To make the dropdown menu transparent go to style.css of bizznesstime theme
and on line 556 change the css of #header-nav to ;
background:transparent none repeat scroll 0 0;
If we look at the particular applications menu in bizzness time theme it
will be shown as transparent. May need to do some more fixes in css to
better show it on UI.
So it is possible but should not recommended as the underlying screen text
overlapped on the menu links, in turn it will be a pain for user to select
on the correct menu item.

Hi Hans,
breadcrumbs dropdown's style.css line 1080 of  #main-navigation ul li ul,
#app-navigation ul li ul
make its background to transparent will solves the transparent background
problem. But for sure it should not be recommended.

Re: breadcrums dropdown scheme

Ryan Foster
I think what your customer might be looking for (and consequently, what you are looking for) is not transparent, but semi-transparent.  If you make the background completely transparent, you won't be able to see the menu and it will be completely useless.  However, you could make the background color semi-transparent/opaque, allowing you to see the menu and also see what is underneath it (like a lightbox type effect).  Here is a cross-browser CSS transparency solution:

.transparent_class {
     background-color:#333;
     filter:alpha(opacity=50);  
     -moz-opacity:0.5;  
     -khtml-opacity: 0.5;  
     opacity: 0.5;
     -ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=50)";  
}

This will result in a 50% gray opaque background.  Hope this help Hans.
