Blur Windows plugin on GeForce 4 Ti

[0x656b694d]

Hello,

Shouldn't the Blur Windows plugin work on nVidia GeForce 4 Ti?
(Motion blur works.)
Or how do i make menus 10% transparent with blured background?

Thanks!

I am not certain whether blur should be working with GeForce 4 series cards, but to answer your question about translucent menus, go to ccsm->General Options->Opacity Settings and add this rule to the Window opacities list:
type=dropdownmenu | type=popupmenu | type=menu
Assign it an opacity value of 90 (90% opaque = 10% translucent).

If you aren't already familiar with window matching rules, you can find a comprehensive article about it on the wiki (http://wiki.compiz-fusion.org/WindowMatching).

Yes, i know about opacity, thanks.
My aim was not only make it transparent, but also with blured backgound.
Is it possible at all?
What actually does the Blur Windows plugin?

Thanks!

I believe the blur plugin requires support for GL_ARB_fragment_program, which wasn't available on nvidia cards till the FX series.
