#################################

Shadows

#################################

Enabled client-side shadows on windows. Note desktop windows

(windows with '_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DESKTOP') never get shadow,

unless explicitly requested using the wintypes option.

#

shadow = false

shadow = false;

The blur radius for shadows, in pixels. (defaults to 12)

shadow-radius = 12

shadow-radius = 7;

shadow-opacity = .75

The left offset for shadows, in pixels. (defaults to -15)

shadow-offset-x = -15

shadow-offset-x = -7;

The top offset for shadows, in pixels. (defaults to -15)

shadow-offset-y = -15

shadow-offset-y = -7;

Avoid drawing shadows on dock/panel windows. This option is deprecated,

you should use the wintypes option in your config file instead.

#

no-dock-shadow = false

Don't draw shadows on drag-and-drop windows. This option is deprecated,

you should use the wintypes option in your config file instead.

#

no-dnd-shadow = false

Red color value of shadow (0.0 - 1.0, defaults to 0).

shadow-red = 0

Green color value of shadow (0.0 - 1.0, defaults to 0).

shadow-green = 0

Blue color value of shadow (0.0 - 1.0, defaults to 0).

shadow-blue = 0

Do not paint shadows on shaped windows. Note shaped windows

here means windows setting its shape through X Shape extension.

Those using ARGB background is beyond our control.

Deprecated, use

shadow-exclude = 'bounding_shaped'

or

shadow-exclude = 'bounding_shaped && !rounded_corners'

instead.

#

shadow-ignore-shaped = ''

Specify a list of conditions of windows that should have no shadow.

#

examples:

shadow-exclude = "n:e:Notification";

#

shadow-exclude = []

shadow-exclude = [ "name = 'Notification'", "class_g = 'Conky'", "class_g ?= 'Notify-osd'", "class_g = 'Cairo-clock'", "class_g = 'slop'", "class_g = 'Polybar'", "_GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS@:c" ];

Specify a X geometry that describes the region in which shadow should not

be painted in, such as a dock window region. Use

shadow-exclude-reg = "x10+0+0"

for example, if the 10 pixels on the bottom of the screen should not have shadows painted on.

#

shadow-exclude-reg = ""

Crop shadow of a window fully on a particular Xinerama screen to the screen.

xinerama-shadow-crop = false

#################################

Fading

#################################

Fade windows in/out when opening/closing and when opacity changes,

unless no-fading-openclose is used.

fading = false

fading = true;

Opacity change between steps while fading in. (0.01 - 1.0, defaults to 0.028)

fade-in-step = 0.028

fade-in-step = 0.03;

Opacity change between steps while fading out. (0.01 - 1.0, defaults to 0.03)

fade-out-step = 0.03;

The time between steps in fade step, in milliseconds. (> 0, defaults to 10)

fade-delta = 10

Specify a list of conditions of windows that should not be faded.

don't need this, we disable fading for all normal windows with wintypes: {}

fade-exclude = [ "class_g = 'slop'" # maim ]

Do not fade on window open/close.

no-fading-openclose = false

Do not fade destroyed ARGB windows with WM frame. Workaround of bugs in Openbox, Fluxbox, etc.

no-fading-destroyed-argb = false

#################################

Transparency / Opacity

#################################

Opacity of inactive windows. (0.1 - 1.0, defaults to 1.0)

inactive-opacity = 1

inactive-opacity = 0.75;

Opacity of window titlebars and borders. (0.1 - 1.0, disabled by default)

frame-opacity = 1.0

frame-opacity = 0.7;

Default opacity for dropdown menus and popup menus. (0.0 - 1.0, defaults to 1.0)

menu-opacity = 1.0

menu-opacity is depreciated use dropdown-menu and popup-menu instead.

If using these 2 below change their values in line 510 & 511 aswell

popup_menu = { opacity = 0.8; } dropdown_menu = { opacity = 0.8; }

Let inactive opacity set by -i override the '_NET_WM_OPACITY' values of windows.

inactive-opacity-override = true

inactive-opacity-override = false;

Default opacity for active windows. (0.0 - 1.0, defaults to 1.0)

active-opacity = 0.88;

Dim inactive windows. (0.0 - 1.0, defaults to 0.0)

inactive-dim = 0.0

Specify a list of conditions of windows that should always be considered focused.

focus-exclude = []

focus-exclude = [ "class_g = 'Cairo-clock'", "class_g = 'Bar'", # lemonbar "class_g = 'slop'" # maim ];

Use fixed inactive dim value, instead of adjusting according to window opacity.

inactive-dim-fixed = 1.0

Specify a list of opacity rules, in the format PERCENT:PATTERN,

like 50:name *= "Firefox". picom-trans is recommended over this.

Note we don't make any guarantee about possible conflicts with other

programs that set '_NET_WM_WINDOW_OPACITY' on frame or client windows.

example:

opacity-rule = [ "80:class_g = 'URxvt'" ];

#

opacity-rule = []

opacity-rule = [

"80:class_g = 'Bar'", # lemonbar

"100:class_g = 'slop'", # maim

"100:class_g = 'XTerm'",

"100:class_g = 'URxvt'",

"90:class_g = 'Joplin'",

"100:class_g = 'firefox'",

"100:class_g = 'Thunderbird'"

#################################

Background-Blurring

#################################

Parameters for background blurring, see the BLUR section for more information.

blur-method = "dual_kawase";

blur-size = 12

#

blur-deviation = false

Blur background of semi-transparent / ARGB windows.

Bad in performance, with driver-dependent behavior.

The name of the switch may change without prior notifications.

#

blur-background = true;

Blur background of windows when the window frame is not opaque.

Implies:

blur-background

Bad in performance, with driver-dependent behavior. The name may change.

#

blur-background-frame = false;

Use fixed blur strength rather than adjusting according to window opacity.

blur-background-fixed = false;

Specify the blur convolution kernel, with the following format:

example:

blur-kern = "5,5,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1";

#

blur-kern = ''

blur-kern = "3x3box";

blur: {

requires: https://github.com/ibhagwan/picom

method = "kawase";

method = "kernel";

strength = 5;

deviation = 1.0;

kernel = "11x11gaussian";

background = false; background-frame = false; background-fixed = false; kern = "3x3box"; }

Exclude conditions for background blur.

blur-background-exclude = [

"window_type = 'dock'",

"window_type = 'desktop'",

"class_g = 'URxvt'",

#

prevents picom from blurring the background

when taking selection screenshot with main

"class_g = 'slop'", "_GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS@:c" ];

#################################

General Settings

#################################

Daemonize process. Fork to background after initialization. Causes issues with certain (badly-written) drivers.

daemon = false

Specify the backend to use: xrender, glx, or xr_glx_hybrid.

xrender is the default one.

# experimental-backends = true; backend = "glx";

backend = "xrender";

Enable/disable VSync.

vsync = false

vsync = true

Enable remote control via D-Bus. See the D-BUS API section below for more details.

dbus = false

Try to detect WM windows (a non-override-redirect window with no

child that has 'WM_STATE') and mark them as active.

#

mark-wmwin-focused = false

mark-wmwin-focused = true;

Mark override-redirect windows that doesn't have a child window with 'WM_STATE' focused.

mark-ovredir-focused = false

mark-ovredir-focused = true;

Try to detect windows with rounded corners and don't consider them

shaped windows. The accuracy is not very high, unfortunately.

#

detect-rounded-corners = false

detect-rounded-corners = true;

Detect '_NET_WM_OPACITY' on client windows, useful for window managers

not passing '_NET_WM_OPACITY' of client windows to frame windows.

#

detect-client-opacity = false

detect-client-opacity = true;

Specify refresh rate of the screen. If not specified or 0, picom will

try detecting this with X RandR extension.

#

refresh-rate = 60

refresh-rate = 0

Limit picom to repaint at most once every 1 / 'refresh_rate' second to

boost performance. This should not be used with

vsync drm/opengl/opengl-oml

as they essentially does sw-opti's job already,

unless you wish to specify a lower refresh rate than the actual value.

#

sw-opti =

Use EWMH '_NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW' to determine currently focused window,

rather than listening to 'FocusIn'/'FocusOut' event. Might have more accuracy,

provided that the WM supports it.

#

use-ewmh-active-win = false

Unredirect all windows if a full-screen opaque window is detected,

to maximize performance for full-screen windows. Known to cause flickering

when redirecting/unredirecting windows. paint-on-overlay may make the flickering less obvious.

#

unredir-if-possible = false

Delay before unredirecting the window, in milliseconds. Defaults to 0.

unredir-if-possible-delay = 0

Conditions of windows that shouldn't be considered full-screen for unredirecting screen.

unredir-if-possible-exclude = []

Use 'WM_TRANSIENT_FOR' to group windows, and consider windows

in the same group focused at the same time.

#

detect-transient = false

detect-transient = true

Use 'WM_CLIENT_LEADER' to group windows, and consider windows in the same

group focused at the same time. 'WM_TRANSIENT_FOR' has higher priority if

detect-transient is enabled, too.

#

detect-client-leader = false

detect-client-leader = true

Resize damaged region by a specific number of pixels.

A positive value enlarges it while a negative one shrinks it.

If the value is positive, those additional pixels will not be actually painted

to screen, only used in blur calculation, and such. (Due to technical limitations,

with use-damage, those pixels will still be incorrectly painted to screen.)

Primarily used to fix the line corruption issues of blur,

in which case you should use the blur radius value here

(e.g. with a 3x3 kernel, you should use --resize-damage 1,

with a 5x5 one you use --resize-damage 2, and so on).

May or may not work with --glx-no-stencil. Shrinking doesn't function correctly.

#

resize-damage = 1

Specify a list of conditions of windows that should be painted with inverted color.

Resource-hogging, and is not well tested.

#

invert-color-include = []

GLX backend: Avoid using stencil buffer, useful if you don't have a stencil buffer.

Might cause incorrect opacity when rendering transparent content (but never

practically happened) and may not work with blur-background.

My tests show a 15% performance boost. Recommended.

#

glx-no-stencil = false

GLX backend: Avoid rebinding pixmap on window damage.

Probably could improve performance on rapid window content changes,

but is known to break things on some drivers (LLVMpipe, xf86-video-intel, etc.).

Recommended if it works.

#

glx-no-rebind-pixmap = false

Disable the use of damage information.

This cause the whole screen to be redrawn everytime, instead of the part of the screen

has actually changed. Potentially degrades the performance, but might fix some artifacts.

The opposing option is use-damage

#

no-use-damage = false

use-damage = true (Causing Weird Black semi opaque rectangles when terminal is opened)

Changing use-damage to false fixes the problem

use-damage = false

Use X Sync fence to sync clients' draw calls, to make sure all draw

calls are finished before picom starts drawing. Needed on nvidia-drivers

with GLX backend for some users.

#

xrender-sync-fence = false

GLX backend: Use specified GLSL fragment shader for rendering window contents.

See compton-default-fshader-win.glsl and compton-fake-transparency-fshader-win.glsl

in the source tree for examples.

#

glx-fshader-win = ''

Force all windows to be painted with blending. Useful if you

have a glx-fshader-win that could turn opaque pixels transparent.

#

force-win-blend = false

Do not use EWMH to detect fullscreen windows.

Reverts to checking if a window is fullscreen based only on its size and coordinates.

#

no-ewmh-fullscreen = false

Dimming bright windows so their brightness doesn't exceed this set value.

Brightness of a window is estimated by averaging all pixels in the window,

so this could comes with a performance hit.

Setting this to 1.0 disables this behaviour. Requires --use-damage to be disabled. (default: 1.0)

#

max-brightness = 1.0

Make transparent windows clip other windows like non-transparent windows do,

instead of blending on top of them.

#

transparent-clipping = false

Set the log level. Possible values are:

"trace", "debug", "info", "warn", "error"

in increasing level of importance. Case doesn't matter.

If using the "TRACE" log level, it's better to log into a file

using --log-file, since it can generate a huge stream of logs.

#

log-level = "debug"

log-level = "info";

Set the log file.

If --log-file is never specified, logs will be written to stderr.

Otherwise, logs will to written to the given file, though some of the early

logs might still be written to the stderr.

When setting this option from the config file, it is recommended to use an absolute path.

#

log-file = '/path/to/your/log/file'

Show all X errors (for debugging)

show-all-xerrors = false

Write process ID to a file.

write-pid-path = '/path/to/your/log/file'

Window type settings

'WINDOW_TYPE' is one of the 15 window types defined in EWMH standard:

"unknown", "desktop", "dock", "toolbar", "menu", "utility",

"splash", "dialog", "normal", "dropdown_menu", "popup_menu",

"tooltip", "notification", "combo", and "dnd".

Following per window-type options are available: ::

fade, shadow:::

Controls window-type-specific shadow and fade settings.

opacity:::

Controls default opacity of the window type.

focus:::

Controls whether the window of this type is to be always considered focused.

(By default, all window types except "normal" and "dialog" has this on.)

full-shadow:::

Controls whether shadow is drawn under the parts of the window that you

normally won't be able to see. Useful when the window has parts of it

transparent, and you want shadows in those areas.

redir-ignore:::

Controls whether this type of windows should cause screen to become

redirected again after been unredirected. If you have unredir-if-possible

set, and doesn't want certain window to cause unnecessary screen redirection,

you can set this to true.

# wintypes: { normal = { fade = false; shadow = false; } tooltip = { fade = true; shadow = true; opacity = 0.75; focus = true; full-shadow = false; }; dock = { shadow = false; } dnd = { shadow = false; } popup_menu = { opacity = 0.8; } dropdown_menu = { opacity = 0.8; } };



### Current Behavior
Only the `active-opacity` works. The `inactive-opacity` doesn't change (remains 1).
