Description Vincenzo Di Massa 2009-11-20 11:38:37 UTC

Version:           trunk (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

Basically when plasma dialogs are closed (like the device notifier or the panel config) garbage is left on the screen.

A screencast is betteer then 1000 words.

I paste another link just to be sure it will be always possible to download the file.

Comment 4 Dario Andres 2009-12-22 00:08:18 UTC

I can reproduce this artifact here using:

Qt: 4.6.0 (kde-qt master commit 747ff8e6ef6f5a1163dfa75bc9ac4755ce7083d1
        Date:   Tue Dec 15 11:58:13 2009 +0100)
KDE Development Platform: 4.3.82 (KDE 4.3.82 (KDE 4.4 >= 20091211))
kdelibs svn rev. 1063229 / kdebase svn rev. 1063229
on ArchLinux i686 - Kernel 2.6.31.6

This can also be reproduced with KRunner on the top edge of the screen.

Comment 5 Marc Schiffbauer 2009-12-22 00:11:38 UTC

Created attachment 39229 [details]

Still there in kde 4.3.95 (Kubuntu Karmic i386)

Comment 12 Christophe Olinger 2010-01-25 18:11:36 UTC

Hmmm, does nobody think that this is some kind of showstopper for the 4.4 release?

Comment 13 Marvin 2010-01-25 21:12:48 UTC

please vote for it! should increase the chance, that this will be solved till 4.4 .

SVN commit 1080634 by graesslin:

Do a full repaint at end of sliding popups animation and when a window gets deleted to remove artefacts.
As the effect is doing full repaints all the time due to PAINT_SCREEN_WITH_TRANSFORMED_WINDOWS this one extra repaint doesn't matter.

Comment 18 Christophe Olinger 2010-02-04 18:53:01 UTC

RC3, kubuntu jaunty fully updated and the sliding popups still do not disappear. Did a reboot.

Comment 19 Christophe Olinger 2010-02-04 19:00:03 UTC

Sorry for the last comment, kwin --version says i am still at 4.3.95, while the platform is at 4.3.98. I'll bug the kubuntu guys.
