Broken Blur Effect since Plasma 6.5.1

The blur effect was completely normal before the 6.5.1 update and even though I updated to 6.5.2 hoping them to fix this issue nothing happened :pensive_face: . It is the same as it was in 6.5.1. The first ss is how it was earlier and second is about how it looks now after updating. Please help. Also don’t recommend me “Better Blur” or something like that. I have tried them but they also have this same issue.

Sorry, I don’t readed all and my message is useless.

Those windows look like they’re tiled and blurred.

There have been some bugs files about it:

Some folks had issues with the colour blending and stuff…

But really, you should specify what you rproblem is rather than say ‘Broken Blur’ - because as far as I can see, the actual blur is really nice. I remember a setting for ‘improve contrast’ which I can’t find now, so I think that needs to be available to disable this.

Apparently, forceblur restores the fine-grained control, but after installing that I couldn’t find any setting…

As you’ve already placed instructions to NOT recommend any ‘better blur’ solution then we’re basically lost.

Strangely, you state 'they have ‘this same issue’ and have still not stated what your issue is - as the ‘blur’ is clearly present, and very blurred.

“Better blur has same issue” means it also does not help with regaining the blur effect which i got earlier [seen in first ss using plasma 6.4] yeah i was experimenting with krohnkite so that’s why i only have one ss of it. Broken blur means it does not render blur the same way as it did for me earlier on 6.4 has some grayish bg

Plasma 6.5.2 restored the blur effect back to how it was before 6.5.0 for me (as far as I can remember).

aha, from my screenshot I’m curious how it would be different with the 'blur effect @Historical-Storm got earlier… and I was using Plasma 6.4.
