Can't adjust dock opacity

[berkiyo]

The dock is themed very nicely and everything is spaced out well but my only gripe is that I can't adjust the opacity of the dock when using "Dash to Dock" extension. Is there a way to make it so one can adjust the opacity/transparency of the dock? At the moment, when there is text behind the dock, it is quite hard to see the app indicators and the icons themselves.

Dash/panel theming in gnome-shell actually rendered using SVG asset instead using CSS, since gnome-shell CSS theming lacks multiple box-shadow drawing unlike Gtk (gnome-shell CSS engine was completely different and not feature-complete like Gtk)

Also with CSS it would suck with ugly border look in light variant (noticeable in dark wallpapers), except if I use box-shadow to draw border instead, but it will lose 'highlight' effect EDIT: adding background-clip: border-box are makes sense and it looks better, but not sure if it works in gnome-shell 3.30 or older .... wait, it looks ugly if uses 'dynamic' transparency option in Dash to Dock, need more hack? Edit2: it also affects on other shell theme, too (tested with Arc theme), it seems like "feature" than "bug" in Dash to Dock

Use of CSS for dash/panel will reconsidered according with this issue

No worries, if it requires too much rewriting, leave it the way it is. At the moment, the dock looks great but maybe a bit more opacity would be nice but even as is, it looks fine.
