Hi, I would like to second that request. That light frame is distracting. Transparent or eliminated would be nice and clean and greatly appreciated!

Change one setting called Frameless graph window in the hidden settings.

Wow! Thank you! This may replace my long used, but not updated for years, Net Activity Diagram.

There doesn't seem to be a good way to display the usage details right on the desktop as it would be covered by other windows. What you could do however, is to turn the graph title bar off, turn on translucency and turn on monthly usage summary. It will give an arrangement similar to this:

Hello. Will you please allow a setting to make just the background completely transparent. Basically, two separate transparency options, one for background and one for text and graph data. I like 100% transparency on background and 20% transparency on text and graph.

May be later, painting the graph with parts with varying transparency isn't so trivial.

Yeah, I can understand that. Hard to justify spending so much time on a feature that is purely cosmetic. Thank you for this program and for making it free.
