Use (fake) transparent windows¶

When this option is enabled, the textarea of all status/channel/quuery/chat windows will be transparent down to the MDI area behind the window.

If the MDI area have a background image, the window will show a portion of this background image relative to the window location and size, else it will show the MDI area background color.

Use (fake) transparent main window¶

When this option is enabled, the MDI area will try to get the windows background image or color and use this as it's background,

If both the transparent main window and transparent windows option is enabled, it gives the illusion of transparency to the desktop.

Use (fake) transparent nicklist¶

When this option is enabled, text nicklist of all channel windows will be transparent down to the MDI area behind the window.
