Configure IDE background opacity #9067

Hello,

I am working on Netbeans and I would like to make the IDE background transparent (no just the opacity, no background at all) , so I could see the frames behind it. When traveling and working on a laptop it is very useful.
Currently I use frame opacity from the windows manager to achieve it somehow but it is not as good as a real transparent background.

At first I have try to edit the FlatLaf properties :
JFormDesigner/FlatLaf#1064
But this approach can not do it.

So I am wondering if it is possible to do so somehow in Netbeans.
I remember being able to achieve it a long time ago (somewhere near netbeans 3 or 4).

Thanks
