Describe the bug

When setting the configuration "window_background_opacity" to anything other than 1.0, it shifts to a different solid color instead of becoming more transparent.

Environment:

  • OS: Window Version 2004 (OS Build 19041.867)
  • Version: wezterm 20210314-114017-04b7cedd
  • Keyboard Layout: ENG

To Reproduce

Change the opacity in the ".\wezterm.lua" configuration settings to any float below 1.0.

Configuration

...
color_scheme = "Hardcore",
window_background_opacity = 0.8,
...

Expected behavior

The expected behavior is the window should decrease the opacity (become more transparent) as the configuration is set lower.

Screenshots

Opacity Set To 0.8

@mborejdo mentioned that he was also seeing something like this. I wonder if this might be related in part to #544 and potentially 09081d2 changing part of the render process.

I'm not sure what exactly changed (perhaps it was a Windows updated?)
but window_background_opacity was only taking effect for windows
with no title bar.

I found that explicitly configuring a region makes transparency
work again.
