Additional information

I’ve tried full-reinstalling the program via Revo Uninstaller Pro.
I’ve tried switching translucent effect in Windows’ settings.
My Windows installed with original ISO and no tweaks have been applied.
I’ve tried importing vault I’ve used on previous Windows system.

P.s. don’t pay attention to different «logged-in» statuses in debug info and screenshot — I made the screenshot before I copied debug info. Nothing changed btw.

Translucent window option works well on Obsidian v1.5.3

So it’s problem of 1.5.8 version

Create a new vault and turn on “translucent window”. This started happening after resetting my pc, I have tried reinstalling my drivers, but this didn’t work.

Did you follow the troubleshooting guide? [Y/N]

Yes, I created a brand-new vault and turned on “translucent window” .

Expected result

Some parts of the UI become translucent

Actual result

Nothing becomes translucent and when resizing the window it’s extremely laggy

Translucency support will be removed from windows in v1.6, since the underlying API has changed and we are not sure we can use it. Sorry!
