I know I used transparency in KDE3. Devs > must have folded that into Desktop Effects. No need to reboot, just press ALT+SHIFT+F12 to enable desktop effects immediately. (It used to just enable it automatically when you checked the enable them at startup box, but I guess it doesn't anymore...)

Before that, it supported "fake transparency" which just used the desktop wallpaper as a background to the terminal. -T.C. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
