Various issues with decorations

Here are some examples of transparent pagers I was testing. Note each has their own issues, but might give you a starting point to get behavior you may want. The transparent effects are only just taking screenshots of the desktop then using that as the pixmap. This has various issues, and a real compositor like picom will give you much better results.

# Transparency

Colorset 26 Plain, fg black, bg DarkSlateGrey, Alpha 5, Transparent

You run them with something like FvwmPager TP9 0 3
