Problems with acrylic in battery saver mode
One possibly fixable issue with the acrylic effect is that, when Windows is in battery saver mode, changing to acrylic mode (ewc.setAcrylic) from any other transparency mode including blur behind and transparent gradient gives a broken, fully transparent window.
So enabling acrylic from a disabled state works, but if you set it to blur behind, and then to acrylic, it breaks and you just get a fully clear window.
This only happens in battery saver mode, probably because acrylic is meant to be globally disabled in this mode to save battery.
I don't know, but maybe this can be fixed, because you can get acrylic working in battery saver mode by disabling and re-enabling again, but this produces a flicker. I ran into this issue when solving the laggy drag issue by disabling acrylic on drag. Hopefully maybe it can be fixed because it is annoying the hell out of me!
It surely can be fixed, but currently I don't have the time to work on this repo, but I'll gladly approve any PR that comes regarding this issue. As you can see.. this repo hasn't been updated for like a year or so, I'll try to make some time to work on this after I deal with these crappy Windows updates.
