GNOME Shell Extension - Smart transparent topbar

NOTICE:

This extension is deprecated for Gnome 40, due to the numerous alternatives and the difficulty to port the preferences to GTK4 (and my lack of implication, too...).

Its behaviour will be implemented soon in Blur my Shell, see this issue for more infos. I highly recommend you to test this extension, and I will do my possible to port this!

A GNOME Shell extension that allows customizing the topbar when free-floating.

This extension now supports changing:

  • topbar background color / opacity
  • topbar text color / opacity
  • transition duration
  • transition distance

Between free-floating and non free-floating states :)

Originally based on zhanghai's work; by the way, thanks to him!

Note: this extension may contain some bugs, if you find one, please report it!
