So a new better windows blur will be added to kde plasma 5.3
Can this be implemented in budgie 11?

As Solus team is re-evaluating future use of framework I would like to link to an Elementary OS Gala branch:
https://github.com/elementary/gala/tree/optimized-blur-vala

Donadigo has ported the new plasma blur effect to vala.

The code base of Gala and Budgie-Desktop is very similar so porting is very easy (almost works drop-in).

Here is a screenshot of my "budgie playground" version with the blur effect:

Please check https://github.com/elementary/gala/tree/optimized-blur-vala for the sourcecode.

Hello,
could you release your sourcecode to have the blur effect ?

Thanks you.

Sorry I do not have "ready for release" sourcecode. Only proof of concept and it is basically based on https://github.com/elementary/gala/tree/optimized-blur-vala. Please base your work on it.

Best Regards
Jan
