[SOLVED] Picom blurring while sharing screen (Teams)

Hi everyone,

I am using jonaburg-picom and using its blur for a while.
But today while i was in a meeting on teams, i found that when ever share my screen
picom blurs the screen and neither i nor my team member can see any thing bucause of the blur.

I also tried to exclude teams from bluring in background but it doesnot work.

blur: {
  method = "kawase";
  strength = 2;
  background = false;
  background-frame = false;
  background-fixed = false;
  kern = "3x3box";
}

# Exclude conditions for background blur.
blur-background-exclude = [
  "class_g = 'slop'",
  "class_g = 'teams'",
  "_GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS@:c",


];

This is a part of my configuration of blur in picom. But exclude teams from blurring is not working.
I am using Desktop teams not on browser.

I hope to find a solution.

Thanks to everyone who helped me in advance.

Hey,

I had this problem today and managed to solve it by adding an entry to the "blur-background-exclude" list:

blur-background-exclude = [
  "name *= 'rect-overlay'",
  ...
]

My guess is that the screen share overlay goes by a different name than "teams", and that's the reason why your config wasn't working.

Let me know if that helps.
