--inactive-dim and single process Terminator

Open mhcerri opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

Hi,

I have configured Terminator to use a single process for all terminals and when I run compton with --inactive-dim it dims either all terminals or no one. Is there a way I can force it to handle individual windows instead of processes?

Thank you.

This is caused by compton "Group leader" detection. That feature is controlled by the --detect-transient and --detect-client-leader options. try to disable both and see if that helps.

I can confirm this solved the issue. Setting both parameters to false in the config file lets the gnome-terminal instances dim individually on i3.
