nUI_InvisiSkin Not functioning properly
 
My invisiskin is only making part of the default nUI invisible/clear.


Is there a fix out there or something i can do to fix it?

Really enjoy not having black bars blocking out a 5th of my screen.

:rolleyes:

The black bar at the bottom of the UI is normal because nuI uses a viewport. There's a FAQ on the subject of using transparent dashboards with nUI. nUI6 addresses this by allowing the user to modify the viewport.

it's not a bar it's like the invisiskin is only making half the nUI interface invisible.

Did you read the FAQ as I suggested?

"Can I make nUI'sdashboard transparent?"

Is there was away to get a clear or smoke colored background, something you can see through?
This is a subject that comes up fairly repeatedly... in a nutshell, no, you cannot use a transparent dashboard.

Because nUI uses vertical space in the dashboard, it resizes and moves your world frame up by 1/2 the height of the dashboard (which actually is very nearly the entire height of the non-transparent parts of the default dashboard) which leaves a large empty black area behind the dashboard that you cannot presently see. If the dashboard were transparent, it would show like a sore thumb.

In addition, if you really look at it, there's very little area there that the dashboards is not using. It has been my experience that when you remove the solid dashboard, the visual impact feels even more cluttered and claustrophobic.

Trust me, you *think* you want a transparent dashboard there, but if you had it, you wouldn't be happy with it.

ok i had clear.... before the newest nUI patch, the plug in/ addon what ever you want to call it worked. a clear background. I updated to the 5.0blablabal patch and now it doesn't work.

And i do want it it clear i can't stand not being able to see the bottom portion of the screen due to huge black boxes.


if the newest patch is not going to allow A. Schwarz / Wavebow / Alleria's nUI_InvisiSkin located at http://www.wowinterface.com/download...fo.php?id=9108 i'm going to be upset. lol

The previous nUI didn't change the viewport because of a blizzard bug in 4.0.1. That was, or is suppose to be, fixed in 4.0.3.

As stated in the FAQ, the botton part is empy, the viewport is moved up a bit. When you make the dashboard clear you see that.

With that said. Perhaps you should read "IF YOU SEE A LARGE BLACK BAR AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN YOU WILL NEED TO EDIT THE nUI.lua FILE....READ ON" part of nUI InvisiSkin...

The important thing people miss is that you are *NOT* losing any of the screen with that viewport... in fact, you see *MORE* screen because of it... you get more screen on the left and the right. It's just that people do not understand how the viewport works and they think that black "bar" is hiding something... it is not.
