Additional information

I saw previous bug reports suggesting this happens when you have multiple Obsidian windows open on Mac. I made sure this was the only open vault & window, and also closed any applications that have anything to do with window management (such as Rectangle) and still saw the same result no matter what.

It might be that you don’t have transparency effects enabled at OS level

Thank you for mentioned it. I found the problem could be macos light appearance settings. I change it to dark mode and it works!
