Using with TranslucentTB

Known Issues

Zed's current transparency implementation prevents this theme from displaying git gutter colors. https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/55972

Under 10 bpc color depth, the Windows Multi Panel Overlay (MPO) function may encounter a graphics driver error that incorrectly calculates transparency. This bug causes the actual window transparency to be higher than the set transparency. In addition to Zed's native transparency settings, the VSCode skacekachna.win-opacity plugin, foobar2000, and TranslucentTB are all affected by this bug. If you think the default transparency of this plugin is too high, it is most likely due to this bug. The solution is to set the graphics card color depth output to 8 bpc.
