Turbowarp Transparency

Hi I'm working on a game in TurboWarp for my desktop but I'd like if it had a transparent stage color. I know this isn't really about help with scratch scripts but I think this is the best place to put this. Does anyone know how I could make this work?

Thanks!

You can use the ghost effect on the stage - although nothing can be placed behind it.

Ghost effect, you can also use a sprite as a backdrop if you want to put anything behind it.

change [ghost v] effect by (25)

good idea but that's not exactly what i'm looking for. i want the stage to show the desktop behind it. i have came to a temporary solution though by using a sprite of my desktop behind it but it's a bit jittery when i move the window

if you can find any better solutions though then please share! my current solution is only temporary as i've already said so anything would help!

i don't know how to add images to forum posts but if you wanna see what it looks like, just go to the “Sprinkles” costume in my comments and news project to see it. Ignore my desktop background though lol

That's not possible. You'd have to make the entire window background transparent by going to computer transparency settings, which itself is also difficult and full transparency can't always be achieved on standard browsers.

i used the packager though so it's an EXE on my computer and it's not running on a browser at all

There is probably something you can do if you look into the project files before packaging. I would advise asking people in Advanced Topics forum, they probably know what line to edit.
