There is no translucent colorset in fvwm because X does not allow it (it will be possible to implement translucent menu but this is not implemented and I do not think it will be in a near future). However, you have the Transparent Colorset option: Colorset 5 fg white, fgsh black, bg grey50, Transparent To get transparent menus: MenuStyle * MenuColorset 5, Font "shadow=1 all:a font" You can try to tint: Colorset 5 tint black 15 but this is slow. To get fast tinting you should use Colorset 5 RootTransparent buffer in the place of Transparent. But you should use an Esetroot compatible program to set your bg (fvwm-root --retain-pixmap). The transparent colorset is not usable with title bar (and will be never), but in a near future you will be able.to use RootTransparent. The RootTransparent colorset is not documented in 2.5.4 because it was not fully implemented. It is in the current cvs. Regards, Olivier -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL: http://www.fvwm.org/>.
