Version: (using Devel) Compiler: CMake 2.6 OS: Linux Installed from: Compiled sources Please make the blur effect work with plasma's transparet panels and widgets.
This would be a really nice addition.
Oh, i forgot about shadows. PANELS SHOULD HAVE SHADOWS! :D PLEASE! PLEASE! I really miss this in KDE4.
@Tomasz: don't post multiple wishes on the same report. Please open a new report.
Ok, sorry ;]

IMHO this is even a bug. Do this with KDE 4.2: 1. Set Plasma theme to Glassified 2. Set KWin's animation speed to very slow 3. Open Kickoff. -> You'll see some artifacts which are caused because plasma's transparence is not blured.
@Roland: please, report it on a new bug.
Did this. This is now Bug 182809.
SVN commit 925075 by graesslin: Blur windows which have hasAlpha set. That way background of e.g. transparent Plasma panels and Konsole will be blurred as well. FEATURE: 178670 M +2 -1 blur.cpp WebSVN link: http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=925075
This is really nice. Thanks for fixing. Is this going to be in KDE 4.2.1?
Yea, it's great! But for me it works only with the panel.

(In reply to comment #11) > Yea, it's great! But for me it works only with the panel. Yes it only works for windows. If you want to have this for all plasmoids you have to report a new feature request against Plasma. Although I don't know Plasma infrastructure I think most parts of KWin's blur shader could simply be reused by Plasma.
