Help with opacity #793

Open SolsticeSpectrum opened 2 years ago

SolsticeSpectrum commented 2 years ago

Hello. Is it possible to use opacity-rule to only blur background of windows? Right now, when I set Nautilus in opacity-rule, it makes the whole window transparent. I don't want that. I want only the black background to get transparent. Same for Spotify, Discord etc. I don't want images and text to be transparent. All mentioned apps have black themes with #000 backgrounds. Can I set picom to set opacity for any black background?

See #755. This isn't a Picom bug.

Would it technically be possible to implement a way for picom to make some specific color(s) transparent (like in this case #000000) and leave everything else untouched?
