[Bug 912495] [NEW] Document Transparent themes

 

Public bug reported:

Document:

When editing a theme it is now possible to set the background to
Transparent. This allows the desktop or any other applications to appear
behind the lyrics. This for example allows the user to run their own
full screen video software behind the lyrics.

However this will not work on all systems. On X11 systems, it will be necessary to run a compositing windows manager, such as Compiz. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compositing_window_manager
If not available, the background will just appear black.
