# Kwin blur effect - Respect rounded corners
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
This kwin effect is a fork of the default kwin blur effect, with minimal changes
|
||
|
to solve the ["plasma kornerbug"](https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=395725).
|
||
|
It works with all decorations, including aurorae one's, and take care of maximized windows, that are assumed to not have rounded corners.

||

|
||
|
|
||
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
||
|
After installing the effect, go to Settings --> Workspace behavior --> Desktop Effects.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Disable the default blur effect ("Blur")
|
||
|
- Enable "Blur - Respect rounded corners"
|
||
|
- Tweak the settings of the effect to match your window decorations.

|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Limitations
|
||
|
|
||
|
The effect only acts for window decorations. If the window has a decoration that have to be blurred and is not maximized, the rounded corners area are removed from the region "to be blurred". (before the blur occurs)
|
||
|
|
||
|
It seems to be not compatible with [ligthlyShaders](https://github.com/a-parhom/LightlyShaders) or [shapecorners](https://sourceforge.net/projects/shapecorners/).
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Plasma version
|
||
|
|
||
|
I only tested the effect on plasma 5.23.3, I don't know if it work with older versions (But it should, the changes from the default blur effect are very minimal)
|
||
|
|
||
|
