Opacity for the Panel like on the GNU Homepage?
Hello to everyone,
I just visited the GNU Homepage www.gnu.org, and there is this screenshot of Trsiquel GNU/Linux, but it has a cool opacity effect, and I really don't know how to do this.
I tried all different plugin-settings in the compiz config settingsmanager. Especially, I fought some battles against the saturation plugin, but without any success.
Do you know how this is possible?
Beside this:
Trisquel 6.0 really is great work! Just migrated from Debian and I'm really happy with it.
This worked in the earlier versions but I think it's not possible in 6.0. At least not with the default panel.
That's by choosing a color for the panel (get to the panel settings by holding Alt, or maybe it's Alt+Super, and right clicking on the panel), but it doesn't work completely in Trisquel 6 (some parts use the system theme regardless), so it looks kind of ugly.
Ok, that's a shame!
But thank you anyway.
The screeenshot from GNU.org is from Trisquel 4.0 based on Ubuntu 10.04 using GNOME 2.30. Since GNOME 3 Trisquel have problems to do the old panel "Windows-like/KDE-like". (Personally I don't like. I prefer GNOME Shell).
This is one problem from Ubuntu applet (I think). Probably the default GNOME 3.4 Fallback can do the opacity.

You should mention that that's a screenshot of the KDE Plasma desktop. ;)
This does almost what I was looking for:

Unfortunately, all the icons and fonts in the panel vanish just like the panel itself when opacity increases.
