Description Rohan Garg 2013-02-20 20:26:50 UTC
Hi
I was testing KWin with Project Neon on Kubuntu Raring and when I try to switch tabs and move my mouse in between the switch I get a random white area.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to switch tabs 
2. While still having your hand on Alt+Tab , move the mouse with the other hand
Actual Results:  
White areas appear.

Expected Results:  
No white areas should be appearing

Comment 4 Martin Flöser 2013-02-20 20:35:31 UTC
so you switch window tabs while doing Alt+tab? That sounds tricky
Comment 5 Rohan Garg 2013-02-20 20:36:57 UTC
Erm, whoops, not tabs,  I meant try switch windows using alt+tab
Comment 6 Thomas Lübking 2013-02-20 20:40:43 UTC
cacheTexture: true

run "kcmshell4 kwincompositing", enter the second tab, filter for "blur", click the config button and uncheck the only checkbox.
See whether the issue remains.
Comment 7 Rohan Garg 2013-02-20 20:42:37 UTC
Nope. Still happens
Comment 8 Martin Flöser 2013-02-20 20:55:34 UTC
to limit the possibilities of issues:
* can you reproduce the issue on raring without neon?
* can you reproduce on quantal (that's the current one, right) with neon?
Comment 9 Rohan Garg 2013-02-20 21:03:45 UTC
* Happens on Raring + KWin ( The GLES binary ) 4.10
* Does not happen on Raring + Standard KWin 4.10
* Happens on Raring + KWin ( The GLES binary ) git
* Does not happen on Raring + Standard KWin git

Seems like something specific to the GLES version? I'll try and test with Quantal, though that will most likely take some time ( A couple of days at the very least )
Comment 10 Thomas Lübking 2013-02-20 21:16:39 UTC
kwin4_effect_wobblywindows
kwin4_effect_coverswitch
kwin4_effect_translucency
kwin4_effect_slideback
kwin4_effect_fade
kwin4_effect_highlightwindow
kwin4_effect_blur
kwin4_effect_outline

Please deactivate those effects and see wether the issue remains.
If not, re-activate them one by one until it re-occurs.
Comment 11 Rohan Garg 2013-02-20 21:25:23 UTC
Disabling kwin4_effect_outline causes the issue to disappear
Comment 12 Martin Flöser 2013-02-21 07:20:14 UTC
given that it is only with GLES on Intel, I'd say it's the same as #315513
Comment 13 Martin Flöser 2013-05-21 07:32:03 UTC
Outline effect is no more in master
