I really miss this one, tried to look in the code, but there I only see cursor_opacity.
Any hints?
Thanks for the work.

There is no background opacity -- this is not supported by glfw the windowing toolkit kitty uses. glfw/glfw#197

I'll give a look. Thanks for the precise answer.

I really would like this feature to exist. I'll follow the glfw ticket.

If you use compton you can add opacity-rule = ["85:class_g = 'kitty'"]; to compton.conf to use compositor transparency as a workaround

Upstream appears to have merged opacity, does that mean we can see opacity brought into Kitty?
glfw/glfw#197

Sure once a version of glfw with transparency is released adding transparency to kitty should be a trivial change -- about ten lines of code.

For OSX users with chunkwm, modification in their .chunkwmrc utilizing commands similar to those referenced in koekeishiya/chunkwm#139 could accomplish this.

Negative z-index images dont need FBO based rendering when the
background is opaque. Finishes up support for background_opacity.

This is implemented in the win branch which will eventually become version 0.6.0
