Blur disappears when opening a new Konsole tab #14

Closed IslandC0der closed 3 years ago

IslandC0der commented 3 years ago

Hi, Whenever I press Ctrl+Shift+T to open a new Konsole tab, the blur goes away. Closing the previously opened tab doesn't help. If I open a new Konsole window, the blur will apply there normally, but still not on the old one. I have the "Blur all except matching" option enabled with no window class names (so it applies to all windows). Thanks in advance! :) Cheers

Hi.

Konsole natively supports background blurring, which can be enabled by checking Blur background in its Appearance settings.

As a side note, the cause of this problem is that Konsole resets blur information whenever the current tab is changed. Konsole allows using different profiles per tab, where each profile can have different background blur settings. To support this, Konsole must reapply blur settings whenever user switches between tabs.

Enabling the native blur fixes it, thanks! Closing.
