force blur not working as in screenshot #18

Closed FantasyPvP closed 6 months ago

FantasyPvP commented 6 months ago

added vscodium and systemsettings to the window classes to force blur as shown in the screenshot, however neither of these windows were blurred. is there a specific theme or colourscheme I need to install? I'm using Lightly with a transparent colourscheme already

I set the window opacity to 85% in the screenshots.

I set the window opacity to 85% in the screenshots.

thanks, Is that done through plasma settings?

Yes, right click on the titlebar -> More Actions -> Configure Special Window/Application Settings, or System Settings -> Window Management -> Window Rules

tysm, closing the issue.

EDIT: might also be a good idea to clarify this in the readme so people don't open more issues in the future asking why the blur doesn't work

EDIT 2: setting the opacity of systemsettings to 85% barely makes a difference, I have to get it to around 50% before it really affects anything

I will.

That's why I don't use a dark wallpaper.

I was using the same wallpaper as in the screenshot in the readme when I tried changing the opacity. not sure it's worth trying to get transparency working on settings anyway though, the settings app really doesn't seem to respect system theming at all, imo it needs a UI rewrite
