Blur should be controlled centrally by the desktop effect. In other words: BlurBehind should always be set to true, and then left to kwin to handle. Having an extra option here seems like micro-management. Why would you need blur behind plasma widgets (as handled by the desktop effect) and not behind menus ? (or vice versa). Also, right now, selecting "blur" in the style settings, but unselecting the desktop effect results in no blur behind menu, and hence inconsistency with what the style option says.</p></blockquote>
<p>KWin has no way of knowing which pixels should be blurred behind a window. That's the reason the hint exists.<br />
If you set the hint unconditionally, the effect will be applied unconditionally. Even when the menus are fully opaque.</p></div></div><br /><div><strong>REPOSITORY</strong><div><div>R31 Breeze</div></div></div><br /><div><strong>REVISION DETAIL</strong><div><a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/D10170" rel="noreferrer">https://phabricator.kde.org/D10170</a></div></div><br /><div><strong>To: </strong>anemeth, hpereiradacosta, Plasma, colomar, alake<br /><strong>Cc: </strong>fredrik, alake, januz, abetts, colomar, andreask, zzag, ngraham, plasma-devel, ZrenBot, progwolff, lesliezhai, ali-mohamed, jensreuterberg, sebas, apol, mart<br /></div>
