Turn off the title bar transparency for unfocused windows

[svivian]

I've searched through all the options in Compiz looking for transparency/opacity but can't find any option to stop the title bar for unfocused windows from being semi-transparent.

Anyone know where this setting might be??

Set the /apps/gwd/metacity_theme_opacity gconf key to 1 to make them fully opaque.

How do I do that?

for this you go to alt+f2, gconf-editor, then navigate to the directory he listed. Cheers

Thanks!

Excellent, thanks!
Still don't understand why Ubuntu has this setting, it's not like you can ever see anything useful underneath the title bar - only other title bar text getting in the way!

It's about choice - what's better: having the option to turn off the setting or being stuck one way or the other?

It's better to have the option--but the default should probably be opaque, not transparent, and at the least this option should be in a more obvious place, like the Window Decorator settings of Compiz.
