Semi-transparent menus on LiteStep...

I saw that the XAqua LiteStep theme has semi-transparent menus, and I was wondering how can you do that? How?

I don't remember for sure, cause it's been a while since I used Litestep. But I think there was a plugin called transparent.dll or something. It could make anything semi-transparent. I remember making some theme for myself using a transparent popup.
check the litestep sites

There are two modules you can use:

lstransparent.dll
grdtransparent.dll

IIRC grdtransparent is for WIN2000/XP

Lstransparent.dll works well for popups....and Rainmation.dll has its own alpha trans support....you 'could' create shortcuts, static and/or animated with alpha trans using rainmation....[something I'm fiddling with at the moment]...

Could it be done that whenever you go into a sub-popup-menu, the menu you just left behind becomes transparent, while the menu you're using is left static??
