Description Konrad Kosmowski 2006-11-05 21:25:09 UTC
Description of problem: Latest version of WindowMaker package for FC6 has been
patched with some not upstream patches. It adds new functionality which does not
seem to work nor is documentated.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open WPrefs.app.
2. Select "Background texture configuration for windows..." panel.
3. Click on options tab.
4. Use the slider and checkbox named "Transparency Menu".
  
Actual results: Nothing seem to happen.

Expected results: Something should get transparent. :)

Additional info: If patching something with non-upstream patch it would be nice
to at least put some infomation about it in a package. F.e. file
README.transparent menu with brief information on how to use would be sufficient.

Thanks for reporting this. Actually there are no new patches included in the
latest release. The patches you see have been part of the fe windowmaker
packages for some time now as requested and seemed to fit the package. The only
thing that was fixed in the latest version is that the bounce animation was not
turned of when no animations option was turned on.

For your bug: When I turn on transparency and click save the menu gets
transparent (you need to reopen it for the changes to take effect like with all
other changes). Please try again with 60% or so to really see an effect and
report back here. The question now is if this really needs an extra
documentation file as it is pretty much self explenatory as your screenshot shows.
