Background blur while using dialog box

Question

I want the background behind the dialog box to be blurry. I used this code but it black outs the whole background instead of blur

dialog = new Dialog(context,R.style.Theme_Dialog_Translucent);

    dialog.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
    dialog.getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_BLUR_BEHIND);

Answer 1

Try it like this instead:

WindowManager.LayoutParams lp = dialog.getWindow().getAttributes();
lp.dimAmount=0.0f;
dialog.getWindow().setAttributes(lp);
dialog.getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_BLUR_BEHIND);
