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

A. I want to display a website (like a digital clock) with the background transparent so you can see the wallpaper. B. I also want to display an animated wallpaper (like a subtle gif of a sunset).

I am currently forced to choose A with a static desktop that I control via my Mac, or B without a clock.

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like to have both A and B simultaneously.

In effect, my desktop would display my native Mac wallpaper (lets say the color blue). On top of that, it would display layer B (an animated picture that takes up the full screen). (at this point, you don't see the native wallpaper anymore). and on top of that, I would like to render A -- a website that shows a clock but I set the css such that the white background is transparent.

The net result is that you dont see my Mac native wallpaper, but rather a digital clock atop an animated wallpaper of a sunset.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Implement a local file with the digital clock and have the wallpaper of that html file set to the gif I want. This is not scalable nor is it user friendly (if i wanted to change the wallpaper, I now have to touch code and possibly recompile stuff).

Additional context

Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.

Thanks for the suggestion. This is unfortunately not something I plan to add. There's simply not enough demand for it to justify the complexity of it, both in code and user-interface.

As a workaround, you could use the CSS/JS setting to inject what you want into the website.
