It also makes text fade which is not an intended effect.

It will be better to have an option for making only the background transparent or translucent without affecting the opacity of text.

@hikarin522 Are there plans to implement this? That would be really great. I come from "vim in terminal" developing ways to VSCode and I'm used to having only background transparent, but not the text.

This would be fundamentally different from how the plugin achieves the opacity right now. But nonetheless would be amazing to have such thing. Glass effect would be amazing too.

I'm gonna work on this, because for me the current implementation is only 80%.

I believe that is not possible. This plugin uses the window manager to make the entire window body semi-transparent. Different elements of the UI having different opacity is supported by Electron, but that would require access to the DOM of VS Code's UI, which the extension API does not provide.

That was sad to read, I was really hoping we could fix this. :(

This can be archived with UI++ Extension, where just the background is gonna be transparent
