picom-trans - an opacity setter tool
picom-trans [-w WINDOW_ID] [-n WINDOW_NAME]
[-c] [-s] OPACITY
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).
-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 window has been specified.
-o, --opacity=OPACITY
Specify the new opacity value for the window. This value
can be anywhere 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.
