Hi All!
I've been playing around with getting transparent windows / views to
work on FreeBSD.
On WindowMaker + xcompmgr / compton I can't get the window to be
transparent. There doesn't seem to be any visual that has
direct.alphaMask > 0. However, if I use the tool transset-df I can set
the whole window to be transparent. (transset-df traverses the window
tree and changes the properties of the root window)
However, if I use xfce4 + xcompmgr / compton transparency works fine.
Both for pure X11 apps and NSApp with NSView and NSOpenGLView.
What do you use as test? Windowmaker + xcompmgr work fine for me, suing
the Transparency Test of GSTest!
Perhaps you need to restart WindowMaker, I don't remember 100%, but it
does work, I tested at the end of April the last time.
