1510 | =head2 ALPHA CHANNEL SUPPORT |
|
|
1511 | |
|
|
1512 | If Xft support has been compiled in and as long as Xft/Xrender/X don't get |
|
|
1513 | their act together, rxvt-unicode will do it's own alpha channel management: |
|
|
1514 | |
|
|
1515 | You can prefix any color with an opaquenes percentage enclosed in |
|
|
1516 | brackets, i.e. C<[percent]>, where C<percent> is a decimal percentage |
|
|
1517 | (0-100) that specifies the opacity of the color, where C<0> is completely |
|
|
1518 | transparent and C<100> is completely opaque. For example, C<[50]red> is a |
|
|
1519 | half-transparent red, while C<[95]#00ff00> is an almost opaque green. This |
|
|
1520 | is the recommended format to specify transparency values, and works with |
|
|
1521 | all ways to specify a colour. |
|
|
1522 | |
|
|
1523 | For complete control, rxvt-unicode also supports |
|
|
1524 | C<rgba:rrrr/gggg/bbbb/aaaa> (exactly four hex digits/component) colour |
|
|
1525 | specifications, where the additional C<aaaa> component specifies opacity |
|
|
1526 | (alpha) values. The minimum value of C<0000> is completely transparent, |
|
|
1527 | while C<ffff> is completely opaque). The two example colours from |
|
|
1528 | earlier could also be specified as C<rgba:ff00/0000/0000/8000> and |
|
|
1529 | C<rgba:0000/ff00/0000/f332>. |
|
|
1530 | |
|
|
1531 | You probably need to specify B<"-depth 32">, too, to force a visual with |
|
|
1532 | alpha channels, and have the luck that your X-server uses ARGB pixel |
|
|
1533 | layout, as X is far from just supporting ARGB visuals out of the box, and |
|
|
1534 | rxvt-unicode just fudges around. |
|
|
1535 | |
|
|
1536 | For example, the following selects an almost completely transparent black |
|
|
1537 | background, and an almost opaque pink foreground: |
|
|
1538 | |
|
|
1539 | @@RXVT_NAME@@ -depth 32 -bg rgba:0000/0000/0000/4444 -fg "[80]pink" |
|
|
1540 | |
|
|
1541 | When not using a background image, then the interpretation of the |
|
|
1542 | alpha channel is up to your compositing manager (most interpret it as |
|
|
1543 | transparency of course). |
|
|
1544 | |
|
|
1545 | When using a background pixmap or pseudo-transparency, then the background |
|
|
1546 | colour will always behave as if it were completely transparent (so the |
|
|
1547 | background image shows instead), regardless of how it was specified, while |
|
|
1548 | other colours will either be transparent as specified (the background |
|
|
1549 | image will show through) on servers supporting the RENDER extension, or |
|
|
1550 | fully opaque on servers not supporting the RENDER EXTENSION. |
|
|
1551 | |
|
|
1552 | Please note that due to bugs in Xft, specifying alpha values might result |
|
|
1553 | in garbage being displayed when the X-server does not support the RENDER |
|
|
1554 | extension. |
