+Set to `true` to place the surface into the backdrop visible in the [Overview](./Overview.md) and between workspaces.
+
+This will only work for *background* layer surfaces that ignore exclusive zones (typical for wallpaper tools).

+### Backdrop customization
+
+Apart from setting a custom backdrop color like described above, you can also put a layer-shell wallpaper into the backdrop with a [layer rule](./Configuration:-Layer-Rules.md#place-within-backdrop), for example:
+
+```kdl
+// Put swaybg inside the overview backdrop.
+layer-rule {
+    match namespace="^wallpaper$"
+    place-within-backdrop true
+}
+```
+
+This will only work for *background* layer surfaces that ignore exclusive zones (typical for wallpaper tools).
+
+You can run two different wallpaper tools (like swaybg and swww), one for the backdrop and one for the normal workspace background.
+This way you could set the backdrop one to a blurred version of the wallpaper for a nice effect.
