Disable Highlighting effect of Main Menu icon on Lxpane

Post by thraspic »

When I hover over lxpanel's main menu icon, it highlights a square. This highlightling looks terrible after changing my icon. I would like to disable or change this highlighting effect entirely. Anyone know if it's possible?

It may be looking bad because you used a square icon.
You could edit the icon and crop its shape and leave a transparent background, then the highlight would only be on the icon and not its background.

Sepicola,

That worked. Will still keep an eye out for a complete disable. Oddly, before the transparency the highlighting didnt cover the whole icon, but now it does. Strange. The bottom 20% or so did not become highlighted. Strange, but my problem is fixed, so thanks.
