That seems to be the only 3D effect you can get with Aero, anyway.
And it doesn't look very pretty either!

I think the alt-tab combination looks better and is faster.

Right click on the Sidebar and choose Properites. At the bottom of the page
click on the link, How do I customize Windows Sidebar?

All of the available options are explained in the help pane. I suspect that
transparency is global. You control it for windows and Sidebar alike from
Personalization with one setting.

There are a bunch of free 3rd party downloads that tweak the sidebar and its
gadget components. Just search for them.

MSFT (showcasing their trademark bullying amalgamated with quintissentiual
cowardice) tries to censor criticsm anonymously instead of announcing what
they find objectionable. If it's MSFT it wants to interfere with
learning--you can take that to the bank. The move toward fundamentalist
anti-science government in their home country ought to suit MSFT to a "T."

Sorry for the 5472 answer. The link brings up the exact same help page CH
gave you, so it doesn't matter.
