How to turn off the transparent display of Leopard menu bar with mac Tips

Apple's Leopard menu bar and Vista have a transparent display, but not everyone likes the transparent effect of the menu bar.

In particular, most Apple users believe that "simple is the best". Here's how to turn off the transparent display of the Leopard menu bar on the Apple Computer and the modified renderings

Macupdate.com already has a number of utilities that can modify the Leopard menu bar effect, broadly divided into two categories:

One is to modify the desktop picture to draw a high 21-pixel bar above the image used as a desktop, and if you don't like white, you can choose your own (like Leocolorbar). This method is relatively simple and easy to do, but there is a disadvantage of such methods, after the resolution changes, if the desktop picture is scaled, the original 21 pixels of the bar will be redrawn. The other is to modify the system configuration file, which is the most direct and effective way, the disadvantage is a bit dangerous, many people do not want to try.

For a user who is curious about Mac OS X, I won't use the first method, so I'll use the second approach.

In the macupdate.com can be downloaded to a small program called Leopaque, which is a small program written in AppleScript, by modifying the system configuration file, to achieve the ability to turn off/restore the Leopard menu bar transparency effect. Once.

The use of the method is very simple I will not say, because some users may worry about modifying the system configuration file, I say what it did, to allay doubts.

It is recommended that those who need to change the Leopard menu bar effect to use Leopaque to change, convenient, but also safe.
