Qt easily allows to work with transparency on top-level windows.

obviously an application with a transparent background.

Here are some samples of what you can get:

Since I already had the structure for the blur-behind on windows in place, adding the KDE4 effect was really easy. So: why limiting this just to some plasma applets? Well, I think that the usage of this effect must be wise, however I wanted that for my app too… …’cause I like eye-candy! 😉Īfter a quick tour through the beautiful KDE svn I grabbed all the needed source code and loaded Fotowall in creator. does it make a difference! Look at Marco’s blog or at this picture I stole from him! All the popups become instantly more readable, even krunner does, and you immediately get the feeling that the plasma panel and all the systray applets really are above your desktop and they look as they were made of some glass/plastic material. so I rebuilt KDE4 svn, restarted it, and… boy.

Now the interesting part: this concept can be used in computers too, especially in user interfaces, to direct the user to relevant information or to help him through a step-by-step process. The ‘ focus‘ word has many meanings, ranging from the optical concept of ‘good convergence of light rays generated by an object’ to the cognitive process of directing the attention to a particular target while ignoring other targets.
