Mac OS X 10.5: Menu bar appears solid instead of translucent
Summary
Your Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard menu bar may appear solid in color, instead of translucent.
Products Affected
Mac OS X 10.5
The translucent Leopard menu bar appears on most computers that are equipped with a graphics card which is compatible with Core Image.
Some graphics cards, such as an NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200, may not have the necessary OpenGL capabilities to display a translucent menu bar even though they are compatible with Core Image. Those cards should render most effects, but not the translucent menu bar.
