EOS i3 installed along side Vanilla Arch/Xfce?

up with the latest ISO we also have a new enhanced more polished i3-setup:

@joekamprad I updated my i3wm-setup and now Default configuration suffers from completely transparent terminal. It also affects my terminal in XFCE.

Otherwise, looks great.

It’s the new defaults. Just adjust the slider in xfce4-terminal.

I3 has installed xfce4-terminal with a transparent background since I made that post and still does. It is set that way by the slider.

edit…just finished an install. This is what the terminal looks like on first boot.

could you show the xfce4-terminal config file? (both of you)
cat ~/.config/xfce4/terminal/terminalrc

I remember we had that issue a long time before… the . (point) needs to be a , comma …
The issue was that it changed from comma to point on its own when it was copied over to system
