Hi! The enable arcylic option in the settings is not working, it worked once in between but not before that nor after that, could you tell what went wrong 😅?

@infusionproximity: What version of OS ant WT are you using?

On Windows 10 Version 21H1 (OS Build 19043.1165) and WT Version 1.9.1942.0 enabling acrylic works as expected.

Sample screenshot with one tab running PS and 2nd running NU:

  • Is your laptop plugged in?
  • Does acrylic work in other apps, like Calculator?

Yes that was the issue! acrylic in calc worked nonetheless, it seems that it is dependent on the power mode!
