1. A display panel stackup comprising:
a transparent cover;
a plurality of pixel electrodes;
a plurality of data lines;
a plurality of common electrodes including a first common electrode and a second common electrode, the first common electrode having a first edge, at least a portion of the first common electrode being disposed under a first pixel electrode and above a first data line, at least a portion of the second common electrode being disposed under a second pixel electrode, the second common electrode having a second edge disposed at a distance from the first edge, the first and second edges forming a first opening free of conductive material between the first and second common electrodes; and
a pixel material that controls an amount of light passing through the transparent cover based on a strength of an electric field through the pixel material,
wherein the first opening between the first and second common electrodes is disposed under the second pixel electrode; and
wherein the first opening defines a vertical region, and the first data line is located outside the vertical region.
