How to put transparent windows effect in Cinnamon ?
If compiz is not compatible with the cinnamon , anyone know any way to put the transparent effect in all the programs (like nemo for example) ? Thanks.

Reading that my first thought is "regression".bimsebasse wrote:Not possible, sorry.
Now you're gonna tell me why that ain't so.
Re: How to put transparent windows effect in Cinnamon ?
No, I sometimes miss emerald, compiz and all that stuff as well. Transparency will probably come to Mutter/Muffin (the gnome-shell/cinnamon window managers) at some point, just isn't here yet. There is an outdated gnome-shell extension (https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/134/opacify/) that goes some way to achive this - it's possible, just hasn't been done.

Curious as using Zukitwo for task bar theme and it's transparent some. Or is that just a hack of some sort?
Sorry not familiar with how it all works together yet. As notice there is the main Cinnamon Theme select which is for only the task bar that I can see. Then one for window titles and another for Gtk+.
Which seems kind of a incoherent way to make sense of theme integration. And seems there is no unified theme system yet?
Was curious if that is the normal way? Of having no unification under system wide themes?
Again just trying to understand how and why things work the way they do.

The themes are not integrated ,
there a theme for windows, other for cinnamon , other for colors , other for icons, other for cursor...., everything is separate.
The theme of windows need to work with new gnome shell, independent of others

Re: How to put transparent windows effect in Cinnamon ?
Yep was my take on it. Just wondering if they will ever integrate that into a more cohesive unit? As it stands now confusing to the new to linux crowd. And I would think more difficult for developer of themes to get a handle on so many different specifications and implementations to create a desktop wide theme that brings it all together in a ascetically pleasing desktop.Darksun1 wrote:The themes are not integrated ,
