[Theming] Popovers can't be set to transparent anymore (Budgie)

SethStorm666

Hello,

In the past I could simple overwrite a GTK theme with a transparent popovers command, but somehow it doesn't work anymore? Has the Budgie team disabled it in GTK3?

The strings look like this, but somehow it won't work;

popover.background {
  transition: box-shadow 75ms cubic-bezier(0, 0, 0.2, 1);
  padding: 0;
  background-color: rgba(60, 60, 60, 0.5);
  border-radius: 12px;

}

This should give me transparent background in the menu, or am I missing the obvious somehow?

That isn't possible.

I think the CSS selector is probably wrong. Currently in Budgie 10, applet popovers aren't actually GtkPopovers; they're GtkWindows mimicking real popovers. They have the CSS class budgie-popover with a child element with the class container.

Eventually, they will just be regular GtkPopovers, but that's a ways off.
