feature: Transparency colorscheme support

[MuteSTEVE]

Did you check the docs?

• [X] I have read all the drop.nvim docs

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Will you be able to add transparant colorscheme support in the future plan?

Describe the solution you'd like

i use onedark colorscheme with transparency on

Describe alternatives you've considered

nothing special, maybe something that can related to colorscheme config that will make transparancy works

Additional context

My Alpha.nvim dashboard becoming black because it doesn't support transparency out of the box

[dtomvan]

Same goes for catppuccin/nvim with transparent_background=true. Seems to be an issue with winblend combined with an alpha < 1 value on the Normal highlight group. Probably related to the upstream neovim/neovim#18576.

[dtomvan]

Over the last couple hours, I tried my hand at fixing this issue at neovim core. Being a new contributor I don't think I'll be able to get this PR through, but any feedback is appreciated: neovim/neovim#24716.

Hi,

👁️ I can see through 👁️

That's Kitty & mini.starter

I'm not sure that related to Drop or Nvim, maybe it's your terminal (alacritty ?)

[dtomvan]

Hmm, how does your colorscheme define Normal?

[GllmR]

I use ellisonleao/gruvbox.nvim

[dtomvan]

Alright, it sets Normal and NormalFloat as guibg=NONE, maybe we could (I'll do it tomorrow if nobody did, don't have time for it now) use a minimal vimrc which just installs ministarter, drop, and sets the minimal highlights for a transparent background (on the starter).

yes i'm using alacritty as my default terminal, how does your kitty support transparency?

[dtomvan]

I'll do it tomorrow if nobody did

I'm so sorry, haven't gotten to it yet. I'll be back after my vacation and then I'll be on it ASAP

[Uzaaft]

Just a friendly reminder @dtomvan, unless your vacation is still going on, if then, no worries!

[dtomvan]

Oh, yeah I am so sorry. Didn't take note of it properly. Thanks for the reminder!

[MrCatNerd]

the dark background and disabling transparency is happening for me too: vs:

[Rizhiy]

Any updates on this? Also getting a black background with transparent background.

[Soliprem]

Also having the same issue

[BBennettChiba]

Would love to see an update. I love the idea of this plugin but it just looks terrible in my terminal
