Something like:
Code:
if(pts) echo "emulated"
if(tty) echo "virtual"
Is there any way to get some transparency in this part? I have compiz installed and I'm using an emerald theme.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI like having my terminal transparent, but real transparency makes the text unreadable if it overlaps with other stuff. I usually have compiz turned off so that I can use fake transparency. Is there some way to do this with compiz on, so I can have the wobbly windows?
View 1 Replies View RelatedBy default in Lucid, Gnome Terminal is transparent.I was on my new Lucid install[1], in Terminal, typing away on the far side of some sshes, and reading some code, when I noticed how awkward it was to read because the background was showing through. "Fine", I thought, "I know where that setting is, although it's a strange default".But Terminal's "Edit Profiles->Edit->Background" revealed it was set to "Solid color". In fact, setting it to "Transparent background", and cranking the Shade up to Maximum was one way of removing the transparency.
A little hunting around revealed that "System->Preferences->Appearance->Visual Effects" could be set to None instead of Normal, and that would fix the problem.So, your choices for a functional terminal are to disable all Compiz eyecandy, or to turn on transparency in order to turn off transparency.Does this strike anybody else as wrong? Is there another control I've missed?
I recently installed Mac4lin on my 10.04 machine and the left part of the title bar isn't showing transparency, even after a restart. Here's what it looks like:

I've been having some trouble getting transparency to work properly on the panels. I've attached a screenshot in which I've got a fully transparent background image applied to the panel, yet the main menu area, status area, and clock are not affected by the background.
I've searched google quit a bit, and all I find are topics saying things like using alt-scroll to make it transparent, but I want all of the icons to remain opaque. Also, people say to use a solid color and adjust the transparency in the properties menu, I've tried all of this, these are obvious.
I couldn't find a section for visual customization. Is it possible to make it so that windows not being used have a certain opacity, and windows being used have another? Also, how can you change the opacity of menus? I used to be able to do this, but it seems I've forgotten.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've been looking around for a while now for the answer to a pretty simple question. I'm normally a gnome user but I'm setting up an old computer with xubuntu for a friend, and I can't figure out how to get transparency to work for guake. In gnome I just go to appearance > visual effects, don't see anything like that in xfce.I downloaded compizconfig-settings-manager (which I assume downloaded the rest of compiz) and did "compiz --replace" but that didn't work. What would I need to do to get basic opengl effects?
View 2 Replies View RelatedIf you install transset then you can set the transparency of your windows and this is very handy when you have lots going on and you can see through your current window that something underneath it has updated...
However transset doesn't seem to work lately? Does it still work for you? Does anyone know if this is this something that happened with a recent update ?
All wonder if someone can point me in the right direction, I have configured my system (ubuntu 10.10) to use Emerald themes and to use Compiz as my window manager. All of my compiz settings are working bar one which is Transparent menus, i.e. click on the Gnome / applications menu and it should be transparent.I have enabled opacity and set "Tooltip | Menu | PopupMenu | DropdownMenu | Normal |" and set opacity to 80, but regardless how much I shift the opacity setting it still isn't giving ma a transparent menu? I have attached a screenie showing the compiz opacity settings screen.

By the way, running Slacware 13.1 x64 with Compiz. Still no transparency.
I have a fresh install of CentOS 5.5. I am trying to browse to the Windows machines on my network (Places > Network Servers > Windows Network), but I get a blank window. I am able to ping the Windows machines using their IP address, but not by their name. What do I need to do to be able to see the Windows machines and also to connect to shared folders on these machines? So far I have tried starting SMB (via System > Administration > Server Settings > Services). I have also tried changing my smb workgroup to "WORKGROUP" (the default was mygroup which did not match my Windows machines.
View 8 Replies View RelatedWhen I was running it before, that was Debian as well, I was able to make my gnome-terminal window decorations completely transparent and/or gone - so the terminal appeared to be typing directly on the desktop.
The method I used before to accomplish this was pretty straightforward, these options could be found in the actual terminal's interface and menu options.
However, now, I get the following result:

I noticed that the transparency profiles don't work on non-maximized terminal windows in Gnome3
Anybody else having this problem? Notice if you maximize the window your transparency suddenly works...
I'm assuming this is a mutter shadow problem?
I'm running 9.10 and I've installed rainlendar. It runs like a champ. The problem is I can't move the transparency bar in the options panel. I had this problem with Xubuntu when I was using it and all I had to do was enable compositing for it to work. I have no idea how to do that under gnome and I didn't see any option like that in compiz when I was using the manager.

Unfortunately, the whole thing won't go transparent, only the blank areas without applets!
I know you can hack it in Compiz, but then everything goes transparent, including text and icons, which I don't want.
As you can see from the screenshot, I'm using the Radiance theme, but this also occurs with Ambience.
I lost transparent terminal windows in LL after you upgraded, you have fallen victim to the not-too-atypical "Preferences File Use Changed Krap". Essentially when you look at a preferences pane it appears that everything is ok, but actually, the way the preference file is being used changed in this version of Ubuntu and you are being punished for it. We need to get the new version of the program to fix the preference file for us, which is easy enough to do by just making the setting changes again.
So, in Terminal,
1) Go to Edit->Profile Preferences.
2) Pick the "Background" tab. You will most likely see that the "Transparent Background" radio is set, but the background is not transparent.
3) Click on one of the other radios (I did "background image") and the terminal window should become transparent.
4) Click on the Transparent radio again and dismiss the dialog.
i just turned on my pc i login and went to go on the net and i got this, no transparency with conky and no wireless icon before it was working perfectly fine:
