When I insert the Samsung Internet search widget on to the home screen I increase the transparency. However as soon as I press ok, the widget goes back to being opaque. Has anyone else experienced this behavior? 

 
Also most of the other widgets for Samsung apps no longer have a transparency setting. The only choice is clear or with a background color which is very jarring against my background. Samsung can you please bring back the s24 widgets. They worked perfectly fine.

Not only that, but they also took away transparency in their widgets for some reason... Such an odd change. I like still being able to see my background behind my calendar for instance rather than a semi-transparent look. The only options they have are solid, opaque, and slightly less opaque.

I would like for every Samsung widget the ability to remove the background for more uniformity. The transparency slider is not enough!

Some widgets don't even have a transparency option - just sits like an out of place blob on your screen.  Some people like that the widget is distinct from other app icons.  I'm in your camp; I should be able to decide whether I want it to blend in or stick out.

Fingers crossed, when I was in Beta I asked all the time. When they asked in the questionnaire it was one of the things they ask, I said yes.

Solid, opaque, and slightly less opaque on the transparency slider is stupid. I WANT TO SEE MY BACKGROUND!
