Any way to change text opacity?

Hi. Love the app but was wondering if there was any way to change the opacity of the scrolling text? I’d like to have text over a camera feed and can get the camera in the background by taking the background opacity to 0% but the text is very bright and bold and would love to take that down to 50%. Any ideas?

Please file a feature request for this here and I’ll add the feature: http://feedback.qprompt.app

In the meantime, if you were a Linux user, the KDE Plasma desktop environment allows you to adjust the opacity of entire windows by scrolling over their handle bar. The ability to do this needs to be configured from beforehand, but it is a nice feature that can achieve what you’re looking for.

By 50% are you referring to the Alpha channel or Luminance?

I’m talking about the prompter text opacity. Whether that can be achieved through luminance or alpha I am not sure!

Sadly not using Linux. Just a regular old Windows 11 machine. I’ll make a feedback request, though!

There may be a kind of hacky workaround to achieve your goals. Save your script. Then open that .html file in a text editor.

Look for the tag.

In the style= section add this type of code where the last number next to the color: parameter determines opacity from 0-255.

Save and reload into QPrompt.
(tried to upload example document in zip file with second paragraph altered, however this app won’t let me. I will send it to you another way if requested.)

edit: code string hidden between parenthesis for some reason

Feel free to attach your example files to the issue’s ticket once @bpdp has opened it.

This should be accomplished by manipulating alpha if I understood the problem correctly.
