Wanted to try out the Helix nightlies and the skin I've been using hasn't been updated yet. So back to BigNoid's AN 5 it is.
Rather than mod the entire skin, I created a new minimal theme for Nox. Just extract the .xbt file linked below to the skin's "media" folder. A few things you will notice from the screenshots... the TriPanel view controls aren't positioned very well after losing the panel background. Also, some might prefer the Logo view to not have a darkened background. If so, you can modify the visibility condition in the code below.

You'll need to make a few changes to one xml file in order to get the darkened background. In IncludesBackgroundBuilding.xml, add the following code at the end of the CommonBackground include, just inside the closing </include>.
Code:
<control type="image">
<visible>!Window.IsActive(home)</visible>
<include>FullscreenDimensions</include>
<texture>myback.png</texture>
</control>
Then you'll need to add similar code at the end of the GlobalSearchBG include, just inside the closing </include>.
Code:
<control type="image">
<include>FullscreenDimensions</include>
<texture>myback.png</texture>
</control>
Let me know if I missed anything!
