Can we be able to switch off background blurring?

Mark Magennis June 27, 2025

In the new Trello, opening  card blurs the background. Not only does this reduce functionality because I often want to see other cards while focussing on one, but it's making me feel sick.

 

It would be great to have a "background blurring" checkbox in the Change Background settings popup.

Hello @Mark Magennis 

Thank you for your feedback. As always UI experience and changes to it is generating a lot opinions. Many users get use to current views and every difference is quickly noticeable.

As for background blur... I am personally neutral to this change, however I understand that you might get used to old view and would like to get it back. 

So far I am not aware of any native option to turn this blur off but as always if you are using a web version everything is changeable - it is only a combination of JS and CSS.. 

So in order to "disable" this blur I suggest to add / inject this simple CSS code "somewhere" without modifying the source code  

.ehqozeZjYqrYu1 {
  backdrop-filter: blur(0px);
}

In the past I heavily used Stylus web extension which help define own styles to a specific URL this change (I guess here you can define it to whole trello.com or specific board even.. )  

I did a quick test and this is the result..

So I guess it is working :)

Thank you @Mirek for that solution. I do use Stylus so it was simple to add.

Is there another option for those of us that don't code?  I also find the blurred background to be difficult on my eyes and somewhat nauseating - obviously I can't look at the blurred screen for a significant period of time.   Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Sarah
