When I run KDE 18.04 I only get window decoration, but the content window is transparent.
I just can say that I run other appimage without any problem and I had the same issue with Kdenlive-17.12.0d-x86_64.AppImage.
Here is the command line output :

thierrybo@thierrybo-desk:~$ /home/thierrybo/.local/opt/kdenlive-18.04.0-x86_64.AppImage 
QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to '/tmp/runtime-thierrybo'

Comment 1 thierryb 2018-05-08 20:48:33 UTC
The problem disappeared now since these actions (they were not related to resolving my kdenlive appimage issue but to "pimp"  a little my raw openbox installation) :

Install these packages :
        compton
	lxappearance
	gtk2-engines
	qt4-qtconfig
	qt5-gtk-platformtheme
	qt5-style-plugins
        qt5ct

Lxappearance : Widget : changed from "Raleigh" (was the only choice) to "Clearlooks"
qt4-qtconfig:  set to GTK+
qt5ct: set to GTK2

This means some of thes actions should be added to prerequisites i think.

Please try with the actual Kdenlive AppImage version 18.08.3
Run the Appimage from the terminal (press CTRL + ALT + T). Move to the AppImage folder and run the .AppImage: ./Kdenlive*.AppImage.
