Keyboard layout pop up translucency? #22

Hey there, quick question.
Is there a way to also add translucency to the pop-up of keyboard layout?

There are no dedicated mods for that. I didn't try it, but what I think might work is using the Windows 11 Notification Center Styler mod and changing its target process to explorer.exe (it can be changed in the advanced tab). At least the keyboard layout popup dialog uses UWP and is part of explorer.exe, as can be seen with UWPSpy.

Note that you need to make sure that the taskbar styler, which also targets explorer.exe, isn't used at the same time, as both mods are incompatible. That means that it's not a real solution in your case, but you might want to try and see if it works and how it looks, and report back if it's worth working on a better solution.

Thanks for the quick reply!
Well, I do use the aforementioned mod(w11 NCS), and thus my question about the case of the Keyboard layout! Ok, now I'll go change the target as u instructed and as for the Taskbar I use TranslucentTB.. I'll know if its compatible or not, in a second! :D

Edit: Ok, so, I put explorer.exe on the inclusion list, restarted the program, restarted explorer, but nothing really happened..

Perhaps the keyboard layout popup dialog requires different targets. If you're feeling like experimenting, you can grab UWPSpy and check it out.

That won't really work, since TranslucentTB isn't compatible with the styler mods. Both use XAML diagnostics, and there can only be one consumer in each process.
