Hi Vizkex,

Thanks for the video.
The acrylic window support is experimental and unstable in some environments.

Unfortunately, the project is not active these days.

GOOD NEWS: I found that Electron finally and officially supports Acrylic window!

I’ll look into it and migrate to it

it’s really good news !!
I hope it’s fixed now

Unfortunately, it was not as stable as expected.
backgroundMaterial = 'acrylic' works only if the window has a window frame.

I hope it will be resolved.
It’s already reported:
