Unable to build on Neon User Edition #5

Closed begonia208 closed 2 years ago

Your solution to the "corner bug" looked very promising. But I regret to say that it won't build in Neon User edition. I am not at all a programmer but perhaps the file I attached could give you useful information. Your screenshot looks fantastic! CMakeOutput.log

Im also on KDE neon, installing "libwayland-dev" fix the problem for me. image image

Thank you very much for your tip! It worked, also on my machine. The kwin-effect installed totally as it should. The new blur-effect appears in my system-settings too. But what ever I try with the sliders, I won't get those beautiful rounded corners!

Alban-Boissard commented 2 years ago

Do you have disable the normal blur effect ?

(I added the missing dep in the readme, thanks for reporting and thanks to GolDNenex to find the missing one.

begonia208 commented 2 years ago

I checked... Yes, I have disabled the normal blur effect. I checked if any other rounded corner tweak left-over is in the way, but I couldn't find any. But the new blur effect of your kwin-effects-blur-respect-rounded-decorations works like a charm!

Does kwin-effects-blur-respect-rounded-decorations produce a configuration file in the folder ~/.config? How is it called?

begonia208 commented 2 years ago

Sorry, I see it now. It's in the file kwinrc. I find there:

[Effect-Blur-Respect-Rounded-Corners]
BottomDecorationRadius=30
TopDecorationRadius=0

But I have no rounded corners.

Alban-Boissard commented 2 years ago

Not that the effect doen't round the corners. It just removes blur from the corner if your deco provide rounded corners. What is your window decorations ? You can try "Clisskstyle" (see the readme) for a decoration with rounded corners.

begonia208 commented 2 years ago

I use the fantastic Lightly (I have to build it myself) theme. But I built the "classikstyles" theme from source, from github, and that too doesn't work with me. So I understand that your tweak only gets rid of the rounded corner bug. But what program do you use to make the corners round? The ones I tried a) do not work anymore or b) apparently are not compatible with kwin-effects-blur-respect-rounded-decorations...

Alban-Boissard commented 2 years ago

I use "classikstyle" and it work well for me. You can choose the radius of the Corners in the settings. If you want bottom rounded corners, you have to set the bordersize of the decoration to anything but no border, depending of the radius you use.

I close this issue, tanks to GolDNenex.
