It is possible to do this with third party apps / utilities / settings depending on your OS etc(although still nice to have built in). A missing killer feature, however, would be setting only the background as transparent or setting a background image.

Do you mean it is posible to set true transparency and if so I would like to
know how, or do you mean managing the compositor and having both the background
and the text with opacity?

image

just like image that I uploaded.

Opened a CR for this https://github.com/equalsraf/neovim-qt/pull/737, a GuiWindowOpacity command sets the opacity in the range 0.0 - 1.0. Can you test if it works for you?

sure, I'll test when I'm free of work.
