But I haven't found a way to change the opacity of just the titlebar, what I've tried seems to make the whole window transparent (there was some setting to change the opacity with the mouse wheel) but that's not what I'm looking to do.Īny tips pointing me in the right direction will be appreciated. I've experimented with a number of prepackaged desktop themes, for example Svista and Seven Black. I've been poking around the Settings and found some references to changing the opacity, but nothing yet that seems to control the opacity of window titlebars only. But I have been unsuccessful in my attempts to recreate that Aero Glass transparency (or maybe better, translucence) on the titlebar and borders of a window.Ĭurrently on KDE Plasma version 5.12.9 KDE Frameworks version 5.44.0 Qt version 5.9.5 Kernel version 4.15.0-76-generic.

When I was looking for a Linux distribution to switch to, I chose Kubuntu (18.04 LTS) because its desktop had the sharpest, cleanest look. Plus, I miss the gorgeous esthetics of Aero Glass in Windows Vista and Windows 7, and that is the specific reason I'm posting here now. I'm tired of constantly having to dig into the OS to fend off their nosy, busybody efforts. I'm tired of Microsoft's increasing efforts to monitor everything I do on my computer: even local searches on MY machine are apparently now being routed via MS servers.
