Wish Grasshopper windows with gradient transparent background

Transparent background

An announcement for GH Online Training yesterday, and more specifically, the illustration image in that post: [image] At work, I put the GH editor window on one screen and have a Rhino viewport available on my other screen. When not at work, I only have my laptop screen and am constantly moving the GH editor out of the way or double-clicking the title bar to minimize the editor. What if the editor was transparent and one can see the Rhino viewport behind it?

The transparent idea

I can’t seem to find a comfortable layout to work in Grasshopper. Although I have a 4K - 32" screen, with Rhino and Grasshopper side-by-side, I always feel in a cramped condition. GH definitions are typically elongated horizontally, which does not help. I wonder if the solution would be to have a “Canvas transparency” slider in the GH UI, so that, while still having the pointer focus in GH, the Rhino UI could be seen underneath. [CanvasAlpha]
