Description Ashwin 2020-03-23 15:18:06 UTC 
SUMMARY
Activating "Blur background" has no effect and is confusing. The reason was there is no global GUI option to enable blur in yakuake.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Yakuake with a default yakuakerc
2. Go to Appearance > Color scheme & font > [color scheme ] > Edit
3. Set "Background transparency" to say 20%
3. Check "Blur background"

OBSERVED RESULT

Background is transparent but clear

EXPECTED RESULT

Background is transparent but blurred

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch Linux
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.68.0
Qt Version: 5.14.1

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Workaround: Manually edit ~/.config/yakuakerc and add `Blur=true` under Appearance section.
