How to remove default parts of UI?

Hi,
I would like to remove the opaque background from the taskbar.

Hello, in the latest version we added possibility to set opacity of widgets and bottom bar backgrounds. Please have a look at this thread viewtopic.php?p=1174 and https://github.com/wiboma/hudiy/blob/ma ... n.md#theme (darkOpacity, lightOpacity)

Instructions for updating Hudiy are available at: https://github.com/wiboma/hudiy/blob/ma ... d#updating

Perfect! Thanks.

Is it also possible to change the other default elements? (progress bar, transport buttons, the area with bluetooth notifications next to clock)

These colors are part of Material Design and are based on selected source color.

More details about colors in Material Design are available at: https://material-foundation.github.io/m ... e-builder/

You can define your custom source colors to match your background: https://github.com/wiboma/hudiy/blob/ma ... n.md#theme (availableColors)

Ok,
So looking at that, it looks easier to create complete custom UI.
For the future - I think it would be beneficial to make the standard guide more editable.

Is Hudiy overwriting www folder when updating, or is it safe to put custom files there?
