The text tool box is normally semi-transparent, at least it is on my
installation.

Is your text semi-transparent? You are not giving much of a clue with that
screenshot.

One thing that does show. It looks like it might have come from an animation, so
could be in colour Indexed mode.

If it is color indexed, change the mode to RGB - Gimp menu Image -> Mode -> RGB
and try again. See if it makes any difference.

Another clue is that the text is also very pixelated, due to the 
"binary" opacity in indexed-mode images.

Yes, you were right. It was Indexed, changing it to RGB solved my problem.
Thanks a lot!

I can't figure it out for the last hour or some going through everything and
googling.
Why my text (even the text tool box) is semi-transparent even though the layer
is 100% opaque?
