Created attachment 174553 [details] Screenshot shows how the panel looks like with 'Translucent' Opacity Setting. SUMMARY When going into Panel Settings and switching the Opacity of the panel to 'Adaptive' or 'Translucent', it remains opaque. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Panel Settings 2. Set Opacity to 'Translucent' 3. Observe the panel's transparency. OBSERVED RESULT No change in opacity. EXPECTED RESULT A change in opacity. A slightly transparent panel. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux: Fedora Kinoite 41.20241007.n.0 [41 Beta] KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.90 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.6.0 Qt Version: 6.7.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION My panel is a floating panel with 'Dodge Windows'. There are a few external Plasma addons: Kara, PlasMusic Toolbar, and Window Title, but they all are actively maintained and support Plasma 6. I created a secondary empty panel to test whether the addons are affecting it but I still see the same issue.
After updating to Plasma 6.2 Stable. I can confirm that the issue still persists. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux: Fedora Kinoite 41.20241008.n.0 [41 Beta] KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.7.0 Qt Version: 6.7.2
Works for me. Are you using the Breeze Plasma theme, or a different one?

Created attachment 174658 [details] attachment-2662480-0.html I don't know what they mean by 6.1.90,but the system is updated to the latest version KDE Plasma 6.2.0,KDE Frameworks 6.6.0,Qt version 6.7.2,kernel 6.8.0-45 and Wayland as default graphic manager,in the edit mode of the taskbar there are 3 very clear customization options,ADAPTABLE,OPAQUE AND "TRANSPARENT" or I don't know what you mean by the concept of transparency,but well if the panel can not be given transparency being in the options then they should remove the option and leave only Adaptable and Opaque which are the only ones that do work apparently.
(In reply to Nate Graham from comment #2) > Works for me. Are you using the Breeze Plasma theme, or a different one? I am currently using Breeze Dark. I'm going to spin up a Fedora 40 and 41 Beta VM to see if the issue pops up. Also going to ask other people to see if they experience the problem. Here are some of my laptop specifications in case it is relevant: CPU: Intel Core i5-10210U GPU: Intel UHD Graphics 620
On a Fedora Kinoite 40.20241010.1 and 41.20241010.n.0 VM which have Plasma 6.2, I can confirm that the Translucent Setting works. I do not understand how this issue could have occurred on my host system. Logs don't show anything unique either. All I get when I try to switch between Opaque and Translucent is the following: Oct 11 09:11:30 fedora systemd[1660]: Started app-org.kde.konsole@42fc0e463bcb482c89c2b53b1bb6ee86.service - Konsole - Terminal.

Upon rebooting my VM with no change in system nor user packages, the issue reveals itself once again.
