Issue
Can not set panel to fully transparent after installing the extension

Steps to reproduce

Other information

Answer 1 · 2022-07-24T19:12:53.000Z

Can confirm, same problem here after updating to LM21.0 beta. Hopefully there will be an update, last version is pretty old :\

Answer 2 · 2022-07-26T02:32:34.000Z

Opened a new issue for the same thing in Linux mint 21 beta https://github.com/linuxmint/mint21-beta/issues. Issue 157 I see the same issue and have done all the updates as of today7/25. Fails in the default theme as well as some of the others I tried. Hope this helps

Answer 3 · 2022-08-03T22:36:06.000Z

It seems the problem is caused by the following two lines in the "policies.js" file of the extension:

enable: function () {
...
this._signals.connect(global.window_manager, "maximize", this._on_window_appeared, this);
...
this._signals.connect(global.window_manager, "unmaximize", this._on_window_disappeared, this);
...
},

They seem to no longer be valid for the "CinnamonWM" object.
Unfortunately I don't know how this issue can be solved :(. Hopefully this at least may help someone with more experience.

I think this was fixed already with this (still open) merge request:
