Setting the height of overhang image

I'm trying to add overhang images which are 90 pixels tall. For the grid screen, I set theme.GridScreenOverhangHeightHD to 90, and all is well:


But for the details "Springboard" screen, I can't find what theme property to set, to make the height be 90. And if I don't set the height, it shows up like this, with a blue stripe showing through:


What do I need to set to determine the overhang height, so that the blue mystery strip is not visible, and so that the breadcrumb text shows in the right place?

Thanks for any help,

Re: Setting the height of overhang image

You can't set the overhang height on screens other than the grid screen. If you want to share an overhang between the two, then you'll need to make it the full overhang height and add transparent pixels (or pixels the same color as your background) from pixel 91+.

Thanks.

BTW, it looks like setting the bottom of the overhang image to the same color as the background is the only option, since setting the pixels to be transparent leaves the ugly blue whatever-it-is showing through.

Re: Setting the height of overhang image

If you need the overhang at the same height for all your screens, you would make your regular overhang image for the gridscreen taller to match the springboard/poster screens.

Yes, I know. Our client has insisted upon a smaller overhang (like other channels have, such as netflix), and they want it the same on all screens.
