Set transparency dynamically in Konsole

Question

I like the transparency effect on Konsole, but when I'm in vim I need to focus and it can be distracting. Is there a way to dynamically turn the transparency on and off, depending on whether my current window is in vim? Maybe I could run a script in place of vim that looks like this: set konsole transparency off; vim; set konsole transparency on; Any ideas?

Answer 1

Launch a new konsole with

konsole --notransparency -e vim

for changing current konsole properties you need to deal with dbus. Scripting Konsole
