Blur my Shell

by aunetx

Adds a blur look to different parts of the GNOME Shell, including the top panel, dash and overview. You can support my work by sponsoring me on: - github: https://github.com/sponsors/aunetx - ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/aunetx If you use Ubuntu, you may want to change the radius of the corner effect for Dash-to-Dock in preferences, else you may see unpleasantly mixed radii in your dock. Note: if the extension shows an error after updating, please make sure to restart your session to see if it persists. This is due to a bug in gnome shell, which I can't fix by myself.

  • extension.js:104 
                this._connection.connect(
                Main.layoutManager,
                'startup-complete',
                () => this._enable_components()
