New Blur Effect

Shared by JT • February 03, 2026

Adding depth to your designs just got easier. The new Blur effect is especially helpful when working with layered elements, letting you soften backgrounds and create clear visual separation without leaving the Showit editor.

What’s new

You can now apply a Blur effect to individual elements using the new Customize menu inside element settings.

Blur works especially well with layered designs. Use it to push background elements back or create hover effects where blurred layers sharpen on interaction.

How to get started

Select any element in your design, open its settings, and head to the Customize menu to apply the Blur effect. For hover interactions, adjust the blur value on hover to zero.
