Angry aTerm problems!


I can set transparency up in aterm fine enough, but if I try and do anything with shading all I get is a grey background and no transparency. What gives?

I'm running Fluxbox on Slack 9.1.

try a higher shade like 80 or something ...
30 is rather low, and it will give the "darker" effect as if there was no transparency ..
its worth a try to see if you get better results ..

I still get a grey background. This is so odd. Here is exactly what I'm putting in:

aterm -bg black -fg white -tr -sh 80 -g 80x40

I rebooted my system and now it works fine.

Thanks for you input though.
