I want to make the GNOME top panel and dock completely transparent so that desktop wallpaper is completely visible.

I already created my own theme and added the following css rules. My top panel turned transparent but there is still some kind of gradient from the bottom. In addition I cant get to work the dock transparency. Instead of transparent it gets black. 

@import url("/usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/ubuntu.css");  

#panel {
  background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0);
}

#dash {
  background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0);
}

#dash .placeholder {
  background-image: none;
}

enter image description here

  • @pomsky Thanks! The dock is working but the top Panel still has this bottom gradient using Dynamic Panel Transparency extension. – HelloWorld0815 May 29 '18 at 13:54
  • @karel Thanks for the link, but using Dynamic Panel Transparency extension results in a partial transparency. Seems like there is some Ubuntu styling involved that applies some kind of gradient. – HelloWorld0815 May 29 '18 at 14:43
  • Dynamic Panel Transparency should make it completely transparent, but the gradient you've mentioned must be due to something else. You'll have to dig deep into the `ubuntu.css` to find the cause of this effect (or use another GNOME shell theme!). – pomsky May 29 '18 at 16:12
