Thanks for sharing the great themes! I found an issue with the UbuntuLegit theme wherein the text from apt-get is unreadable and the following edit solves the issue:

On line 488, replacing
"green": "#300A24",
with
"green": "#4E9A06",
resolves the text color.

Thanks again for the themes!

Thanks for sharing. I was following through your video, and am unable to get useAcrylic to work. I got everything else working, like keybindings etc, but not the transparency. Are there any dependencies required to get this to work? Thanks

I think so, I set "acrylicOpacity": 0.5, and also 0.85.
The ctrl + mouse wheel resizes the text as you mentioned, but the ctrl + shift + scroll doesn't affect the opacity setting. Still just filled with the maroon background colour.

I have observed that "useAcrylic" doesn't work when on Battery Saver mode on laptops. @bradleysawler I am not sure if what kind of device you're using, but if you're on a laptop, you might try checking if the Battery Saver is turned on and blocking it.

Some features don't work until the device is set to Best Performance

I noticed that useAcrylic was not working for me. I had it setup on all my profiles, still it didn't work.
Then i moved it to profiles > defaults and deleted it from all the different terminal profiles. Boom! it worked.
Thanks so much.

@koldou98

I have tested with several Windows settings, and to get the Acrylic feature working u need to have the transparency effects turned on in the Windows Color Configuration.

Terminal 1.10+ should use the font object instead (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/terminal/customize-settings/profile-appearance#font-example)

        "defaults": 
        {
            "fontFace": "CaskaydiaCove NF",
            "fontSize": 16
        },

Becomes

        "defaults": 
        {
            "font": 
            {
                "face": "CaskaydiaCove NF",
                "size": 16
