Nested Blur

[jt49]

If I blur an object having a child object which itself has been blurred I see an unexpected effect (see attached example). Blurring the parent object causes the child object to loose its own blur.

Hi,

Yes, it has worked like this since version 8.0. Blurring is not inherited for child objects.
Do you think it's inconsistent and should be reworked?

[jt49]

IMO, blur should follow a similar logic as "nested opacity": Render the parent object (with its whole tree of objects below) without blur, and then apply the blur.

I agree. Should we add this change to PTE 12?

There is some issue with existing projects. If somebody mistakenly enabled a Blur for a child object and its parent object separately, then the Blur appear for the child object, too.

That would be great! Any idea when v12 will be released?

Perhaps not a very serious issue.

We have a good progress with version 12.0.

I had such a situation. It was necessary to change the blur on several objects. 
As the objects approach. It was necessary to change the blur alternately.
It would be much more convenient to change the blur. In the parent and child objects.

Hi,

We'll implement the nested blur in V12.

Hi
I would like to get acquainted with the new features of the program.
