Help please

ok so I want to make a menu with a background that makes things behind it blurry like this.



can anyone tell me how I would do this?

[JamminR]

make a panel, use DrawBackgroundBlur on it.

Thanks for such a fast reply i tried that once but i think i was using it wrong but i thought it meant behind the panel what do I use for the start time thing? just a little confused sorry

[lampman13]

ok so i got that but how do i restrict the blur to just an area like a box? also sorry for looking like a kid someone spilt something on my keyboard and I have sticky keys

Blur will limit itself to the size of your panel.
As for time, there is a perfect example in that link. Systemtime in panel init.
Set a var when you make the panel, use that time in the blur. Or even a second before for fun effect I'd guess.

It is possible to make a panel that blurs and fades into transparent then fades into blur again and so on? Then I will color it red. For my gamemode.
