How to make the panel transparent [SOLVED]

#1 Post by txtinman »

I've looked through the settings, but I haven't found how to make the panel transparent. Can someone point me to the right place please?

I found this and it works. https://store.kde.org/p/1338479

you set a custom background color that is transparent. you might have to manually restart the panel.

Code: Select all

xfce4-panel --restart
