Can't shade transparency level in the GNOME Terminal


Hello everybody,
I'm having a little but annoying problem with the GNOME Terminal 2.29.6
I'm using the transparency property that shows me my desktop background as the terminal background.

The point is that when I start the terminal it shows as 100% transparent and when I try to shade it from the profile preferences menu it will show as 100% opaque, no matter where I leave the scrolling bar.
When I restart the application it will fall back to 100% transparency.

Obviously I'd like to set it so I can choose an intermediary transparency grade.

Thank you, everybody

I switched from Metacity to Compiz and then back to Metacity and it works now.
