Invisible/Transparent Background in VM
Hello,
If you switch to "seamless mode" in virtualbox, you can see the taskbar of the OS on your screen , like having a transparent background on your VM.
My question: is there a possibility to do the same in VMware's Workstation (7) ? I know and use the "Unity" mode in Workstation/Player, but I like to have my xp taskbar (VM OS) on top of my windows 7 (Host OS) taskbar like it would be with virtualbox...
Thanks for tipps/links or help

manager. It features:

o pager - thumbnailed view of the desktop.
o launchbar - buttons to quickly launch applications
o show desktop - button to iconify or shade all windows
o image - display an image
o clock - show the current time and/or date
o system tray - tray for XEMBED icons (aka docklets)
fbpanel requires NETWM (www.freedesktop.org) compliant window manager. You can run many instances of fbpanel each with its own configura-
tion (see OPTIONS below).
