@altman Thanks.
Hello bitsnpcs. Great colours.
If You don't want to see [Workspace1 Workspace2] just remove it from panel.Then right click on panel->add new items->window menu.You will see new icon on Your panel.Left click on it and You can choose workspace.
Icon is changing equivalent to top window.

Hello zygmunto,
Thank You for the tutorial :) , I have followed it and swapped the screenshot above to show it, I moved the new icon for Workspaces next to the time & date.
I used Gimp's color picker on the heart to use for the text color.

Thanks altman :)

Thank You misko, it is the most beautiful desktop I have ever had :) , thanks to you and zygmunto.

If anyone would like me to post the wallpaper with or without the text, I can post it?

Hello misko,
thank you for your help  :)
Here is my new Linux Lite desktop following the tutorials and all the help received.
The wallpaper I d/l, added the text, and LL icon with transparent background made by sysdrum.
Hello bitsnpcs, you are welcome.
You have awesome looking desktop over there.
One of my desktops. Ever since I saw the HD pic of the Andromeda galaxy it has blown my mind - in this minute portion of that galaxy, each small dot is a star!
That's great, Hable must have taken 150 photos and they were merged later. It looks like it's only a part of the Andromeda galaxy. Since galaxies are so big the light that comes from one part of the galaxy is late a few thousend years. But it doesn't matter because it takes milions of years for the light to reach the Earth. It's like seeing how did the galaxy looked like in the past. Scientists can only calculate where the galaxy is right now.
Thanks for sharing the screenshot and the link.

Cheers fellows.
bitsnpcs,
1/how is the frame around the keyboard icon and the two workspace icons made transparent please ?
Right-click on the panel > Panel preferences...
A window dialog opens, now choose 'Items' tab to open a list of everything you have on the panel. You'll see 'Notification Area' on the list. Double-click on that to open a new dialog titled 'Notification Area'.
You'll see that 'Show Frame' is marked. Unmark that and Frame will go away.
2/ how to colour the workspaces so the currently used workspace matches the icon colour and the other one is transparent ?
In the list double-click on the 'Workspace Swither' and when a dialog shows up, unmark 'Show miniature view'.  You can also change 'Number of rows' to 2.

Hello,
I have a few questions about the transparent panels.
1/how is the frame around the keyboard icon and the two workspace icons made transparent please ?
2/ how to colour the workspaces so the currently used workspace matches the icon colour and the other one is transparent ?

Then just the left icon is "Menu" in white and the right is the clock in white so they balance each other.

Some tips for everyone who likes trasparent panels. Linux Lite 2.2

right-click > panel > panel preferences
Select 'Items' tab and then double click on the 'Window Buttons.'
Here you will see an option 'Show flat buttons' If you enable that your window buttons that are not active will become transparent.
Some other tips since you opened this :)
Window Grouping - is set to 'Never' by default, you can change that to 'Always' if you want to group your opened windows buttons on the panel. If you turn it on and open' let's say 3 firefox windows, only one window button will appear with this label 'Firefox (3)'. When you click on that menu pops up and you can choose one of the windows.
Middle Click Action - set to 'Nothing' as default. I like to to change it to 'Minimize Window'. That way when I click on the window button on the panel with the middle button on my mouse, widow will minimize to the panel. Unfortunatelly this doesn't work on grouped window buttons when I enable 'Window Grouping'. The other option you can choose for the 'Middle click action' is to close the window with the middle mouse button 'Close window'.
Draw window frame when hovering a button -does what it says, very cool option, and I like it.
Show only minimized windows - I would not use that one.
Let's continue. Go back to the 'Panel Preferences' double-click on 'Workspace Swither', Workspace Swither window dialog opens.
'Show miniature view' - miniature view doesn't look too nice on a transparent panel so I've switched that off. Also number of rows to 2 seems to look ok,
Once more, back to the 'Panel Preferences' and double-click on a 'Notification Area' , and window dialog opens. Here there is an option to 'Show frame' on a notification area icon. I switched that off so it looks better on the panel.
