Description tromzy 2018-09-19 07:46:29 UTC
Not sure where to put this, but I use Kvantum for my window style and I tried to enable transparency in Kvantum ; it works but I get no blur. I have Blur activated everywhere else on the desktop, but not in Kvantum on Wayland.

KVantum needs fixing to use wayland blur protocols

I just noticed that the same problem occurs with transparent Qtcurve themes.

This got upstream back in 2018, but still occurs on QtCurve
