Remove Black UI Background?

[aple]

So, something that might not be so known is if you remove ALL the UI elements, there will be this big black box on the bottom of the screen where the UI is suppose to be, and a much smaller one on the top.

Is there any way to remove these black boxes? Or are they a hard-coded aspect? If possible, it could be a very interesting start to a fully, 100%, customized UI.

Same here. I tried putting transparent blp and it is still there.

I believe they are hard coded.

Perhaps this should be a request for SharpCraft, then? Having the UI completely removable is infinitely useful.

The black borders are indeed hardcoded, the game is just not rendered below these.
To implement this in Sharpcraft is a big amount of work, so big that it will probably never be done.

Holy fuck really?! Wow.

Okay, maybe this would be a bit more practical. Just disabling UI elements, like the Weapon/Armor displayed when clicking on a unit.

For that, there's this:
ReplaceableTextures\WorldEditUI\LocationBrush00.blp

you cant, the game window just doesnt strech that far, so if you remove UI, you have nothing, black, because the game never renders there. No trick or hack will work
