Feature

The wallpaper is applied behind the ui and then the ui is made translucent. the approach works but there is a problem it happens so the text or becomes translucent too so it sometimes is very hard to read ; which is unconformable.So i would be happy if the @Katsute or his team could make it s that the ui is translucent and not the text for at least the editor(main code part).

Reason

As i said the text or becomes translucent too so it sometimes is very hard to read.

Using the renderContentAboveBackground may improve readability of the text, as well as lowering the opacity.

This extension actually functions with the background layer on top, so there isn't a way to actually increase text opacity, only lower the background one. I've previously attempted having the background actually in the back most layer, but VSCode has too many overriding css styles that makes this approach infeasible.

This would be nice, I'd love to have brighter backgrounds, but fully opaque text.

[Katsute]

Other than the background opacity there isn't any way to improve the text visibility at the moment.

The background needs to be overlayed on top of the content rather than under because VSCode applies background colors to nearly every element in the IDE for theming, covering any background; which is why this extension applies the background on top of the content, which unfortunately causes that readability issue.

Understandable. BTW found a bit of fix try some thing like lowering the saturation and contrast of the image and due to syntax highlighting the text will be read able
