# transset-df(1)

change window transparencies on the fly

## NAME

transsetdf - change window transparencies on the fly

## SYNOPSIS

**transsetdf** \[*options*\]\

## DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the **transsetdf** command.

**transsetdf** is a program that allows the user to change window transparencies on the fly.  Supported methods include using window manager hotkeys, 'select by pointing' without actually selecting a window, and selecting by name and window id.  transset-df is a modified version of xorg's transset and requires compositing to function.  It is meant to allow a windowmanger-independent way to support transparency.
