Floating shortcuts anywhere? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have been looking for an app that will place a small, transparent icon on my screen that can launch an application. I would love to have an icon that looks something like the icons for SmartTask Bar and ButtonSavior. But I just want it to be a shortcut so that I can launch any other app the same way.
Here's an image of what I'm talking about. Sorry for the lazy arrows...
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Thanks for anyone who can help.

I don't know any app for this kind of shortcuts but Sidebar can do like same functionality with better ui.

I like using Smart Task Bar, but I think I might like "Start Menu" better. But I really like the way that Smart Task Bar launches. Smart Menu just uses a homescreen shortcut.

This will give you the notification bar etc. But if you are searching for something hardcore like the signal icon on the left mod ,or animations well it hasent been made Yeah you can try the launcher in the above post to recreate even better.

Question about UI bar/keyboard

So I wanted to give the UI bar a try and 2 things came up. The photon already has the default nav keys. Is there a way to disable those? Also it messes up the Xperia launcher on the aokp rom. Is there a way to fix that (I'll post screenies)
And the keyboard. I noticed whenever the keyboard (any keyboard I get) has a small black space under it. It isn't really horrible but I seem to notice small things like that. Is there a fix for that?
Edit:
Here is the Xperia launcher with the UI bar. Pretty.. broken

[Q] Flyme OS Status Bar on android?

{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Is there any kind of way we can modify the statusbar enough so it resembles this? i don't know why google has not think of that, it's way more efficient than the normal one
Um, flyme "os" is based on android. It is certainly possible to do this for android, but I don't see much extra functionality possibilities with this status bar... All it really does is take space away from the notification icons to accommodate the larger clock and shuffles them to a second row. This also unnecessarily wastes screen space.
But hey, whatever floats your boat man...

Do you like it?
PS: Only thing I'm missing is there should be an option to update manually and change weather station from Yahoo to Accuweather. Still it's a new app, I shouldn't expect more.

I allways wanted to have a transparent navigation bar to have a real 5" display, and finally this feature has been implemented in KitKat 4.4.
But the problem is that only works in the Launcher, it would be amazing to have a transparent status and navigation bar in all apps, specially in the browser.
I put here the idea and a screenshot, hope someone knows how to implement it!
Thanks!
