When I start my computer the Background contrast effect the most of times is not working. If I logout and login again (or Alt+F2 -> 'kwin_x11 --replace' command) it works. Here is a screenshot that shows how it looks at startup https://www.dropbox.com/s/te6ieomydsu0mg7/Screenshot_20180124_010050.png?dl=0 and a screenshot that shows how it should be https://www.dropbox.com/s/dz6j43l20bav4j4/Screenshot_20180124_010212.png?dl=0
Please provide output of qdbus org.kde.KWin /KWin supportInformation from when the problem is visible
Most likely I broke this in https://cgit.kde.org/plasma-framework.git/commit/?id=f3cd5d55fa323e65c0b01794a59b801d2716634a

Git commit f6de326fdfb891d45001456c5c7092ea41f4f72a by Kai Uwe Broulik. Committed on 26/01/2018 at 19:33. Pushed by broulik into branch 'master'. Revert "[Plasma Dialog] Call window effects only if visible" Apparently causes background contrast to not work on startup, let's just revert this and figure out a proper solution later. This reverts commit f3cd5d55fa323e65c0b01794a59b801d2716634a. M +8 -12 src/plasmaquick/dialog.cpp https://commits.kde.org/plasma-framework/f6de326fdfb891d45001456c5c7092ea41f4f72a
