           Summary: configure "none" wallpaper as transparent wallpaper
           Product: plasma
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: panel-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: jagarni1983 gmail com


Version:            (using KDE 4.0.83)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Currently Compiz can paint natively on every desktop a different wallpaper editing the value of the containment wallpapercolor=0,0,0,0 in ~/.kde4/share/config/plasma-appletsrc ...

If in Desktop settings is selected the option "none" to the wallpaper the desktop is black, ok.

I suggest include a "transparent" option down the "none" that disables every option as "none" does AND the color selection button (when you choose "none" you can pick a colour for the desktop), and save in the containment the wallpapercolor value to 0,0,0,0 (in ~/.kde4/share/config/plasma-appletsrc should I have  finally wallpapercolor=0,0,0,0 )

Then when Compiz is used instead of kwin will show every wallpaper that Compiz Fusion has configured for every viewport. 
If kwin is still used with "transparent" wallpaper option will work exactly as the "none" wallpaper option, painting the desktop as normal (by default I think that is a black color).
