Screenshot of corruption
Thanks for the screenshot. That shows that it is not a duplicate of 199735, such an issue I have never seen before. I have a question to that "translucency enabled for window decoration": where and how have you enabled the translucency. I cannot see any additional translucency in your screenshot. i guess when moving. may it be some plugin clips regardless of the current desktop? @thomas: what happens is you disable all plugins? is it maybe related to a desktop switching plugin or "slide back" (seems to clip windows a lot) - disabling the "translucency" plugin fixes it (as far as I can tell) - moving the "decoration" slider in the translucency plugin settings to "opaque" seems to improve things, but they are not perfect By "translucency enabled for window decoration" I mean that the "decoration" slider in the translucency plugin is set to any value other than "opaque". thanks for testing it out. I thought that this might be the problem and I have a rough idea where to look for the bug and how to fix it :-) I have exactly the same artifacts as in the screenshot, and I too have a transparent decoration. Now I have disabled it and so far no artifacts. Hi there! I'm also seeing this bug. I have a Dell Vostro 1400 with an Intel GM965 video card and Fedora 13 installed. Whenever i switch virtual desktops and click on a window I get a repaint on the window, like as it disappears and then appears again. Sometimes it gets corrupted. I could not get a screenshot because it seems to cause a window repainting and then the problem goes out. I'm running KDE 4.5 beta 1 from kde-unstable Fedora repositories. I've seen a bug like this on 4.4 only with konsole or on any other application after a heavy workload. I disabled the transparency plugin but the problem persists. I also put all options to "opaque", but no way to solve the problem. Then i disabled every single plugin to find out that the blur effect is causing the bad behavior. Now it's disabled. As said I have an Intel GM965 and i have this bug also https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=239890. Maybe it's related. Thank you. Upgraded to 4.5 and it's still there. However, exactly as in bug 202818 it is now only triggered when click on the decoration. *** This bug has been confirmed by popular vote. *** In my case it was the 'blur' and 'slide back' plugins that made troubles... Blur made the whole window disappear and then repaint itself piece by piece (sloooowly, very annoying) - this bug https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=243890 and when I disabled it - only decorations started to disappear... Disabling 'slide back' plugin seems to fix the problem... I wonder if those are related and have some other more severe reason that it happens... OpenSuSE 11.2 and 11.3 KDE 4.5.1 Nvidia and Intel is this still an issue with 4.6/master? I just tried to reproduce and cannot see the issue. Hi there. I'm running fedora 15 alpha with kde sc 4.6.1 and this is happening to me https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=688710. Maybe it's related. Regarding to repaitings on windows I didn't noted anymore. Regards.

No this is completely unrelated I cannot reproduce it anymore either. assuming it is fixed - thanks for the quick reply. |
