Some terminal emulators have a translucent background feature which allows the desktop underneath to be partially visible.
|
|
|
|
This feature is unlikely to work with Textual, as the translucency effect requires the use of ANSI background colors, which Textual doesn't use.
|
|
Textual uses 16.7 million colors where available which enables consistent colors across all platforms and additional effects which aren't possible with ANSI colors.
