<p>Hm, if you just comment L.668, how would you control transparency of ordinary inline notes and popup notes? Preferably without changing the look of existing annotations created in earlier Okular versions?</p>
<p>Let's reconsider. We have two transparency parameters for each annotation:</p>
<ul class="remarkup-list">
<li class="remarkup-list-item">Alpha channel of QColor Style::color</li>
<li class="remarkup-list-item">double Style::opacity</li>
</ul>
<p>Sadly it seems like PagePainter and Poppler currently have different interpretations of those two values:</p>
<ul class="remarkup-list">
<li class="remarkup-list-item">Poppler: Use alpha channel of Style::color to control transparency of background color. Use Style::opacity to control transparency of the whole appearance=border+background+font.</li>
<li class="remarkup-list-item">PagePainter: Ignore alpha channel of Style::color. Use Style::opacity to control transparency of background color. No way to control transparency of the whole appearance=border+background+font.</li>
</ul>
<p>This is a inconsistent. I think we could either fix this inconsistency in Poppler or PagePainter (more effort), or hardcode some kind of</p>

<p>in PagePainter.</p>
<p>Any other ideas?</p></div></div><br /><div><strong>REPOSITORY</strong><div><div>R223 Okular</div></div></div><br /><div><strong>REVISION DETAIL</strong><div><a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/D13203">https://phabricator.kde.org/D13203</a></div></div><br /><div><strong>To: </strong>dileepsankhla<br /><strong>Cc: </strong>ltoscano, ngraham, tobiasdeiminger, aacid, okular-devel<br /></div>
