            Bug ID: 441314
           Summary: Differentiating overview contents from desktop
                    background
           Product: kwin
           Version: git master
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: effects-overview
          Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: sk.griffi...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
The new overview appears very promising. However, without dimming the
background wallpaper/icons and/or applying a blur layer on it, it becomes
difficult to seperate windows. Problem is more pronounced with wallpapers that
match theme's background colour, but it would certainly benefit almost all
cases if the windows (and maybe workspaces in future) are clearly
differentiated from background.

Ideally, it would appear to be best if a plasma theme property (such as widget
background colour or panel background) is used, however, it will create problem
if the overview intend to display panel as well. So it is better if the
background is slightly dimmed, and blurred for a visually appealing effect. In
case blur is disabled, the dimmed background should be sufficient to
differentiate the content
