Whenever I use the Glass Effect, I encounter the same problem. I create a frame, fill it with a color, and adjust the opacity. However, unwanted lines start appearing, even if I convert the frame into a component. This issue occurs every time, and I would like to understand the reason behind it and how to fix it.

Hey everyone — thanks for your patience while our engineers dug into the glass effect issue. I’m glad to confirm that the fix has been released. ✅

💡 Make sure you’re on the latest Figma Desktop App (125.9.10 or later) and refresh the tab you’re working in.

If the issue pops up again, let us know. Your feedback was really valuable in helping us get this sorted.

Hi ​@Ankit Saharan, thanks again for your patience! 

The team would love some information from you to help them along in their investigation.

What OS are you using? Are you seeing this issue in both the desktop application and the browser? If using the desktop app, are you using the latest version?
 
They also suggest checking your GPU to ensure it's running the latest graphics driver. 

Please let me know at your earliest convenience, and I’ll pass it along to the team.

Same issue, present on both m2pro macbook and PC running 7700xt. Both running the most upto date drivers. It is fine in design mode, but renders this way when in preview mode sharing with clients.
