You can do that (finalAttrs), but it would make Emacs a very special snowflake in the nixpkgs ecosystem I just hacked out a fix using finalAttrs with backward compatibility for the .override interface. What do you think? https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/365784 | 05:29:48 |
| linj | The exposing the Emacs derivation factory function way is more special and loses old patches. | 05:32:32 |

 Stephen D | Is there anything special I need to do to get transparency working with i3 + picom + emacs? I have it working in my terminal fine but emacs is still completely opaque | 14:57:27 |
| Stephen D | I have this in my emacs config: (set-frame-parameter nil 'alpha-background 90) | 14:57:37 |

I have this in my emacs config: (set-frame-parameter nil 'alpha-background 90) you need also add a cons (alpha-background . 90) to default-frame-alist: https://github.com/daviwil/dotfiles/blob/4032c3949e7a459ff73a1aa39d0f864810594a55/.emacs.d/modules/dw-core.el#L76 | 16:19:59 |
| @acidbong:envs.net | but for some reason I can't apply transparency with either add-to-list 'default-frame-alist and set-frame-parameter | 16:21:20 |

 zororg | (modify-all-frames-parameters '((alpha-background . 100))
This works for me
| 17:43:54 |
| zororg | When that feature came out, I read that it was only available for emacs PGTK build (i might be wrong) | 17:44:52 |
| Stephen D | hm, maybe I should be using emacs-pgtk then | 18:22:20 |
| Stephen D | alas, that did not help and gave me warnings that it's not supported | 18:45:08 |
 magic_rb | its not im using it | 20:25:22 |
| magic_rb | alpha-background i mean | 20:25:27 |
| magic_rb | (add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(alpha-background . 80)) does it for me | 20:25:48 |
| Stephen D | I have both of these:
(set-frame-parameter nil 'alpha-background 80)
(add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(alpha-background . 80))
But it doesn't seem to work | 20:28:12 |

 rczb | I just found that it is nil rather than Eglot that blocks the initialization of a Nix buffer. nixd takes almost no time to startup. | 03:14:12 |
