Have you considered increasing the default transparency of the bottom left UI?

In the "new user" scenario, had I not read the docs, I might not of know the bottom left UI was there.


I have an ATI card, attached is a screenshot for what its worth. I do use a program call F.lux  that automatically adjusts my monitors to be kind on my eyes, based on time of day. I disabled this and still feel the default setting is too hard to make out?

Looks perfectly unnoticeable, as intended.

Would it be worthwhile making it more noticeable? Most 'web apps' tend to have a fixed bottom bar that is consistently easy to find. I don't think transparency enhances the experience at all. Also, transparency fading obviously is not as lean (CPU friendly) as something without animation. You could also re-consider placement. Dragging up is harder than dragging down or right. An opaque fixed left vertical bar might make more sense and take up less space!
Next version will have a possibility to connect an external css themes. This will give possibility to experiment with different placements and so on.

Really left positioned vertical toolbar is an interesting idea. .
Please no! Horizontal screen space is already limited. We don't need yet another left-side vertical element. I think removing the transparency would be just fine. I see no disadvantages, as I really wouldn't miss seeing 10% less of the entire tree.
