Terminus: transparency doesn't work [LINUX]

[zoraneus]

In application menu, when I slide transparency, Terminus ask me to restart. I restart the app and after, the slider stay in the same place than before, but the opacity was not apply.

I am having the same issue. Recently switching from OSX to Linux Mint and hoping to find a suitable alternative to iTerm, this looks promising but I would like a little transparency if possible.

This is a web-based app so I can see if I can find somewhere this might be able to PR a fix... no promises

ps - the transparency slider, from the UI perspective, feels inverted: that is we generally have sliders increase in value when sliding to the right. Since the setting is titled "Transparency" we would think that the right-most value is the most-transparent, yet it's inverted. 🤷‍♂

I though about it, I've tested with the slider at half value position, but opacity still the same

@zoraneus -- sorry -- I didn't mean to suggest a _solution_ to your problem 😅
I don't know how to fix your slider, but I'm lucky that mine works. I didn't want to create its own issue for a minor UI complaint -- perhaps if others think it's worth tackling they will comment here / create a dedicated issue / create a PR / something else 🤷‍♂

Hey all, awesome project. Issue listed is persistent in Fedora 31, which in case you didnt know is gnome, @ForthTurn probably has gnome as well. Not sure if it would have anything to do with DE but I know of other apps that could render transparency in some DEs but not others.

Greetings,
I'm on Ubuntu Eoan and Cosmic. Transparency does not work on either.

Fedora 30, transparency not work

[jinfagang]

Seems only macOS work with transparent....

[nitishingde]

Still an issue on Ubuntu

fedora 31 workstation in VM, I didn't try on the host which is also a fedora, transparency is not working.
Some technical specificaitons:
it's gnome boxes VM
the user interface is xfce4
the underlying process should be mutter then since it's wayland by default in fedora.

[boistordu]

still not working with 101 under fedora 31 would be in guest in gnome boxes or even on host.

I have to say I had high hopes for Terminus under Linux - but the settings don't seem to work reliably. The opacity setting is one that doesn't work; others include the "User default shell" that is not picked up (it works in Guake). All in all the responsiveness is also much poorer. Terminals need to be super fast!
