Same for me after I have upgraded to Ubuntu 22.04. But only on external monitors.

I have already tried switching off the default system theme and choosing a theme other than Yaru.

Any updates about this issue? I'm having the same problem, it loses transparency on fullscreen mode.

guake: 3.8.5
ubuntu: 22.04

Update: When I log in by Ubuntu xorg the transparency is back. The problem seems to be with wayland

I had left it to @mlouielu because they reported this shortly after making terminal background rendering changes and because I can't reproduce. Been doing virtualbox installs lately for debugging though, could grab an ubuntu image see if I can make this happen

This happens for me as well.

Willing to provide any additional forensics or run from particular branches/commits.

Transparency works fine when running Xorg and NVIDIA with proprietary drivers.
Transparency works fine when running Wayland and Nouveau drivers when not running fullscreen.
- Height can be max, so I can achieve semi-full-screen (top panel visible) but would love to cover up even the top panel :)
