How to disable window shadows when desktop is invisible?

The panel svg is in ~/.local/share/plasma/desktoptheme/themewhatever/widgets/. If you run such an svg in, say, inkscape, you’ll notice the shadow on it. Try , for example…um…breeze dark flat…something, plasma theme ( kde store) Or look for some ( preferably color scheme adaptive) shadowless plasma themes. Good luck. That kde store contains zillions, some with no shadows on panels only, no shadows on panels AAND menus …etc etc.

So the plasmashell shadows are rendered as part of the theme resources rather than dynamically by the window manager (in my case, kwin), @dzon?! That explains the mysterious rationale mentioned at 476996 – Allow window border to render on plasmashell windows too.!
