Sublime Text - Transparent Theme

Question

Can alpha be applied to hex color code in Sublime?

Sublime themes can be edited through .tmTheme files by changing the hex values.

<key>background</key>
<string>#000000</string>

Android:#32000000 black 20% alpha Hex transparency in colors does anything like this work?

Purpose: see desktop while coding

I only want to edit it through .tmTheme file for simplicity. Any help is much appreciated.

Yes, just add the an hexadecimal value at the end, for example for a black color with 50% opacity use <string>#00000080</string> or for a white color with a 50% opacity use <string>#FFFFFF80</string>

Doesn't provide desktop transparency, which is what OP wanted. Sublime Text doesn't support it. – Free Bullets Nov 30 '18 at 20:03
@FreeBullets Desktop transparency can be achieved with any utility to do so, e.g. for windows you may use http://windowtop.info/ – Ivan Castellanos Dec 02 '18 at 02:44
