Weston does not gives a transparent window in Ubuntu

I was trying to create a fully transparent window using wayland weston and render content using openGl.

  • I avoid setting an opaque region with wl_surface::set_opaque_region.
  • Created a weston.ini file and Configured transparent background color
  • Right now the drm-backend is used with wayland.

I could not obtain a fully transparent window( a window where I can see through ). Could any please comment on how to obtain a fully transparent window ?

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
