Frame alpha channel doesnt work #178

The outline and bg parameters can also accept a "colour-with-alpha" (r,g,b,a) to allow a bit more more control over the transparency of the various bits. (source)

Whenever I tried, it seems to me, that frame element ignores alpha channel, and I cant make it transparent. Not bg neither outline.

I would like to use frames for fadeout edges of widgets into video in background, which I would wrap to the frame.. I was able to to so with maps, like

<frame y="256" width="256" height="256" cr="70" fo="70" bg="255,255,255,0">
  <component type="moving_journey_map" size="256" zoom="14" />
</frame>

But cannot do the same with text, speedometers,.. ...

<frame y="256" width="256" height="256" cr="70" fo="70" bg="255,255,255,0">
  <component type="text" x="100" y="100"  size="25" align="left">Accl.x </component>
</frame>
