Window transparency and blur

[111nation]

Does Slint natively support window blur and transparency? I'm curious, are there any workarounds for specifically rust + slint?

Yes, you can change the main window background's transparency with background: #00000000; (last two 0 are the opacity value).
It's also possible to disable the title bar to get some fully transparent UI with no-frame: true;.

export component MainWindow inherits Window {
    background: #00000000;
    no-frame: true;
    Text {
        text: "I'm floating around";
    }
}

But I don't see an option to blur what's behind the window when it's transparent, I'd love to know if that is possible too.

It's possible to get blur with private api using the i-slint-backend-winit crate.
This will be expose as an unstable feature in Slint 1.12 https://snapshots.slint.dev/master/docs/rust/slint/winit_030/
