I was wandering if there was a way to make the HUD a bit transparent, so that we can see what happens in the application underneath it. I suppose it’s doable only with hardware compositing, so either with Compton or Compiz enabled. I am using Compiz ATM, so a Compiz-based solution would be preferable, but a Compton one would be just as welcome. Thanks!
I was thinking about Opacity, Brightness and Saturation plugin in CCSM, but I can’t figure how to identify mate-hud windows in it… Any idea?
Hmm… Now that I’ve finished writing this, I wonder if I should put transparent HUD as a feature proposal…
