Did some cleanup. And made frosted glass default opacity use BlurStrength::VeryLow by default since that seems to adjust after the users theme. |

I wonder if it is better to add a separate slider and a blur_opacity setting, to be used only for frosted glass, where the slider have distinct steps matching the BlurStrenght enums. That way the blur opacity will always be relative the setting in cosmic-settings. Right now, it is relative to that until you change the value, then it gets fixed. |

I implemented a separate slider and config to keep the blur opacity relative the main blur settings. |

Reverts a43b5ae, which dropped the dimming of the terminal background when the window or pane is not focused. Only the shading is restored; nothing else in that commit changed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The opacity setting was ignored and its slider hidden while the compositor's frosted glass effect was active, leaving no way to adjust translucency in that mode. Add a separate `blur_opacity` setting for that mode. It holds a level in the theme's alpha map rather than a percentage, so it keeps following the system-wide blur settings, and is resolved against the running theme where it is applied — both lookups are matches on borrowed data, cheap enough to do while rendering. Its slider steps through the levels in the opposite order, since a higher blur strength means a lower alpha, and carries no value label because the level is not an absolute opacity. The default is `VeryLow`: translucent, but several steps more opaque than the theme's own `frosted`, which is tuned for containers behind other content rather than for terminal text.

I have, with the help of Claude Code, made a fix for #878 . Now the opacity configuration is now shown for frosted glass effect, but defaults to the opacity value for the Primary layer and not the Background layer which it was previously. I think Primary might be a bit low, but it is a lot better than using the same as the Background layer. I also restored the non-focus tint.
