Hi Folks,

Thanks in advance for helping out.
I’m super happy with the newly released Figma slides. It perfectly integrates with what we need and it works like a charm.
We are using some glass effects in our deck, which are built with blur effect. However when exporting to PDF, they are transparant again. Who knows what to do?

Hey @Dennis_Weisscher, thanks for flagging this!

This sounds like a bug, so I’ve passed this onto our Slides team to investigate. From what you’ve described, it sounds like you want and expect the blur effect to remain when exported? We definitely don’t support glass effects right now, but we may be able to look into this capability.

Thanks @dvaliao for your reply! Allright sounds good. Am I expected to keep an eye on release notes or is there any communication plan around a ticket like this? What can I expect?

The team confirmed that a fix is in the works, but I don’t have an exact timeline to provide just yet. I’ll update you here once it’s launched.
