System theme doesn't apply Ghostty transparency on load (v1.1.10) #8480
The system theme does not inherit/apply terminal transparency settings from Ghostty on startup. However, a custom theme with "background": { "dark": "none", "light": "none" } works correctly.
This has been fixed by PR #8467 which sets the system theme background to transparent (RGBA with alpha=0), allowing terminal transparency settings like Ghostty's background-opacity to show through.
The fix is now merged into dev. Make sure you have "theme": "system" set in your config to see the transparency.
