I'm so new to this skin, and it looks quite nice. Coming from other skins like eminence and Zephyr, I would like to know where does one change the way the menu bar looks etc? Or is that not an option?

You can set it to stick to any border or change the colors but not the layout. This is because the sidebar is my reference point for all other elements. Changing the size of it will move everything else or disturb the building process :/

I can check in the next Update if I can make it a little bigger but It won't be more than the actual sidebar backgrounds height.

1. Can i switch off the sidebar. Its a little bit strange, every time when i scroll trough the library the sidebar fades in, and that at every movie.
2. Is it possible to set the background wallpaper only for some blocs, for example bloc AA, AB, BA, BB and not for the complete background. Or create a second bloc for art?

Made a quick test. Sadly, it somehow breaks the design.
However, I was making some attempts for something new here :

But it seems It's a pain to make this work at Library level, so since it's partially coded, I thought about moving this as an alternative home menu (in settings).
This will not be customizable (except the colors that are matching since KOver is the base). Can this be a solution ?

1. This can be easily added in the settings at Library level (already coded, just have to activate the option).
2. You can set your own picture as background for each bloc. Now not sure about what you want to achieve ... You mean setting the wallpaper as bloc background ? Actually Bloc3 is intended to show arts (like wallpaper fanart) and it resizes to the given parameters on the grid. A second art bloc is not planned for now because as I explained previously, KOver begins to be too much power hungry and this could cross the limits on some devices.

Nope, you didn't ... I DID ...
Was in my TO-DO list a long time ago but seems I missed it. Will add it in next Update

For home menu ? Can you be more precise ?

I'll try and get a few images or a video clip to illustrate

Yes please. I've tried on my side to reproduce it in skinshortcuts (Home) and Designer but it never happens.
A debug log could also help.
Following my previous post for home, just made a quick matching custom view :
