Hi,

Sorry for the duplicate.
I haven't tested it by myself, but I heard that if the feature is enabled you
can set the gnome-terminal translucent from the menu (Edit -> Current Profile,
same as beryl). Since I am only interested in this composite feature, so I think
it could be useful for those people who likes translucent for the
terminal window
but not the other effects. thanks alot!

Cheers,
Difei
