[Solved] Gnome-terminal Transparency
Hi there everyone, new ARCH user here, I have a very simple(i hope) issue that I need help with. I have the latest Arch, using gnome 3.8. My issue is that in the gnome-terminal, I used to be able to make the background transparent on other distrobutions, but I can not on my current Arch setup. The option to change transparency used to be under the Colors tab(i think) but I do not see it. I have the x86-video-intel driver installed, and I appreciate any help!

Re: [Solved] Gnome-terminal Transparency
While you get it right in your description, your title is misleading. Transparency is a feature of the terminal emulator (gnome-terminal in this case) not the shell (bash).
Unfortunately, I've never used gnome-terminal, so I can't help directly - but if you change your title to something like "gnome-terminal - setting transparency" you'll likely get the help you're looking for faster.

Re: [Solved] Gnome-terminal Transparency
In the latest update, the option to make gnome-terminal transparent was removed. Sakura is a good terminal emulator with option for transparent background.

Re: [Solved] Gnome-terminal Transparency
Terminator also supports transparency and is incredibly awesome! Though the splitting feature it offers has only been a lukewarm feature for me.
