Hi.

I have KDE5 Kubuntu.
Layer Styles Window makes shades. But Filters do not make shades. Could you check it, please?

That's because the filter dialog is not modal, while the layer styles dialog is modal. The dark effect is done by the window manager, so that's where you should configure this.

I'm a humble KDE5 user. I tried to find where I could switch this dark off. But I could not find this magic button in my settings.

Boud, it is not configurable in the window manager I'm afraid.

Comment 4 Paul Geraskin 2017-07-12 10:57:23 UTC

Gmic looks ok too.

Boud, May I reopen the issue, please? You don't mind?

Comment 6 Halla Rempt 2017-07-12 11:07:01 UTC

No, this really is not something Krita does, so it's useless to have an open bug for Krita for it. We cannot change anything about it! Besides, it is configurable:

* Right-click on the the window titlebar. 
* Choose More Actions, 
* choose Window Manager Settings. 
* Go to Desktop Effects. 
* Type "dialog" in the search bar.
* Uncheck "Dialog Parent -- Darkens the parent window of the currently active dialog".
