PICOM-TRANS(1) User Commands PICOM-TRANS(1) NAME picom-trans - an opacity setter tool SYNOPSIS picom-trans [-w WINDOW_ID] [-n WINDOW_NAME] [-c] [-s] OPACITY DESCRIPTION picom-trans is a bash script that sets _NET_WM_WINDOW_OPACITY attribute of a window using standard X11 command-line utilities, including xprop(1) and xwininfo(1). It is similar to transset(1) or transset-df(1). OPTIONS -w, --window=WINDOW_ID Specify the window id of the target window. -n, --name=WINDOW_NAME Specify and try to match a window name. -c, --current Specify the currently active window as target. Only works if EWMH '_NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW' property exists on root window. -s, --select Select target window with mouse cursor. This is the default if no win- dow has been specified. -o, --opacity=OPACITY Specify the new opacity value for the window. This value can be any- where from 1-100. If it is prefixed with a plus or minus (+/-), this will increment or decrement from the target window's current opacity instead. -g, --get Print the target window's opacity instead of setting it. -d, --delete Delete opacity of the target window instead of setting it. -t, --toggle Toggle the target window's opacity: Set opacity if not already set, and delete if already set. -r, --reset Reset opacity for all windows instead of setting it. EXAMPLES * Set the opacity of the window with specific window ID to 75%: picom-trans -w "$WINDOWID" 75 * Set the opacity of the window with the name "urxvt" to 75%: picom-trans -n "urxvt" 75 * Set current window to opacity of 75%: picom-trans -c 75 * Select target window and set opacity to 75%: picom-trans -s 75 * Increment opacity of current active window by 5%: picom-trans -c +5 * Decrement opacity of current active window by 5%: picom-trans -c -- -5 * Delete current window's opacity: picom-trans -c --delete * Toggle current window's opacity between 90 and unset picom-trans -c --toggle 90 * Reset all windows: picom-trans --reset BUGS Please submit bug reports to https://github.com/yshui/picom.
