      1 Alpha Focus Highlight Patch
      2 ===========================
      3 
      4 Description
      5 -----------
      6 This patch allows the user to specify two distinct opacity values; one for the
      7 focused- and one for unfocused windows' background.  This enables the user to
      8 spot the focused window at a glance.
      9 
     10 The *Alpha Highlight Focus Patch* patch is based on the
     11 [Alpha Patch](https://st.suckless.org/patches/alpha/),
     12 which is already applied in the patch file below. Most of the work has been performed by the
     13 original authors of the Alpha Patch.

     24 Notes Alpha Patch
     25 -----------------
     26 * Note that *you need an X composite manager* (e.g. compton, xcompmgr) to make
     27   this patch effective.
     28 * The alpha value affects the default background only.
     29 * The color designated by 'defaultbg' should not be used elsewhere.
     30 * Embedding might fail after applying this patch.

     33 Notes
     34 -----
     35 * In i3WM, the focus event is triggered twice for one specific window on a workspace (root);
     36   hence the alpha values are applied twice which appears as blinking.
     37 * The patch is applied both to a non-patched version and to a patched version of st
     38   and can be tried out [here](https://github.com/juliusHuelsmann/st).
