I don't know if this is the right place for suggesting this, but as I was told in KDE forums to post here, I'm doing so.

I think it would be nice to have the ability to make all areas translucent when using Oxygen-Transparent.
I mean, files/folders area in Dolphin for example, isn't transucent. Same for some parts of Amarok, the text area of Quassel, etc...

Yes, this is the right place to post this. However it seems as though we can already accomplish what you want by right click on the window title -> Opacity -> Set to whatever you want.

Let me know if this is what you mean.

No, translucent is not the same as transparent. 100% transparent is 100% unusable, while 100% translucent drawer will leave text readable, the borders of each widget (scroll bars, folder/files area, etc...).

To understand it right, install Oxygen-Translucent and turn it on (http://blog.renanfernandes.com.br/wp-co ... arent1.png)

Actually, that's exactly what I like about OxygenTransparent: (if everything goes right) only the important parts of a window like a text area or Dolphin's file area are opaque while control areas fade into the background.
So it would have to be an option, if you ask me, but I guess that's what you were proposing.
