Bug Description

Started using sakura in fedora 18 due to gnome removing the ability to make the background of the terminal transparent. However, after upgrading to fedora 20 ( 3.10.2 ), the background transparency no longer seems to take effect UNLESS the options menu is displayed. After hitting "Apply" when selecting color, the opacity goes immediately to 100% regardless of the actual value set in the settings.

Is this bug still present in the latest Fedora/Archlinux releases?

I'm going to change this bug to "Incomplete". If still happens with recent sakura versions (>3.3.0) and the latest Fedora release, please reopen it.

Hello!
I`m using Sakura 3.2.0 on my Gentoo system with Fluxbox.
The similar problem, I`m unable to set transparency in color properties. After modifying transparency percent and clicking "apply" nothing happens.

Hello,

I just installed sakura on arch, and I'm having the same issue. When I set opacity, nothing happens, the background stays opaque. Then, when I open again the color setting window, then the background gets transparent again, with the last setting, but when I close the setting, it gets opaque again.
