Disabling shadows for compositing window manager
If you don't use a compositing window manager, then Ulauncher's shadows will look like big black box or similar on Ulauncher 5 and older. To avoid this you need to start ulauncher with a command line flag:
ulauncher --no-window-shadow
.Ulauncher version 6 (beta) has removed this flag in favor of trying to detect and disable shadows when the compositor doesn't support them. This behavior has not been tested extensively though.
Window manager requiring specific settings to disable the border
Additionally, window managers and DEs can add their own borders by default that you have to override. See examples how to do this for BSPWM, Sway, Compton and Picom.
