[Feature] Transparency Issue Requires `ignore_opacity = on` in Decorations -> Blur

[Alexandos]

Description: Transparency effects are not working as expected without explicitly setting ignore_opacity = on in the decorations -> blur section of the configuration. This setting is crucial for enabling transparency effects to function correctly. Steps to Reproduce:

1. Configure the decorations -> blur section in the configuration file.
2. Attempt to apply transparency effects without setting ignore_opacity = on.
3. Observe that the transparency effects do not work as expected.

Expected Result: Transparency effects should work as expected when ignore_opacity = on is set in the decorations -> blur section. Actual Result: Transparency effects do not work without setting ignore_opacity = on 🥸. Proposed Solution: Add the following line to the decorations -> blur section of the configuration file:

ignore_opacity = on

This change will ensure that transparency effects are enabled and function correctly, saving time for other developers who may encounter the same issue.

I prefer not using transparency for apps at all You can add that option to ~/.config/hypr/custom/general.conf if you wish

[Alexandos]

Yes, but in the .config/hypr/hyprland/general.conf file, there are lines:

blur {
    enabled = true
    xray = true
    special = false
    new_optimizations = true
    size = 7
    passes = 4
    brightness = 1
    noise = 0.01
    contrast = 1
    popups = true
    popups_ignorealpha = 0.6
}

Why not add ignore_opacity = on there? If these lines are not working at all, it would be a waste of time for people who wanted to configure transparency to figure out why nothing is working.

While I don't have an in-depth understanding of how Hyprland renders blur, that option to the end user seems to make Hyprland render blur behind every window, even if unnecessary, which affects performance.

If these lines are not working at all, it would be a waste of time for people who wanted to configure transparency to figure out why nothing is working

This is my dotfiles, and by design I don't need app blur. If someone wants to configure this, they are free to check the Hyprland wiki. I can add a comment there, but I do not want to change this option. I hope you understand.
