Bug 311296

After a few hours working on KDE, I almost always end up with one or more floating close window buttons that show every time I rotate the desktop cube. I don't exactly know how or when they begin to appear, but I'm pretty sure it has to do with the Present Windows effect.

After a great deal of trial and error, I figured out a way to reproduce the bug. However, it is NOT the only way to get this bug.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
(See http://dl.dropbox.com/u/49436584/bug_cube_rotation.avi)
1. Enable the option to show the close window buttons in the Present Windows settings.
2. Have exactly two windows open.
3. Use the Present Windows effect (in the video, I go to the top left corner of the screen).
4. Close one of the windows by clicking on the button that appears on its top right corner.
5. Click on the remaining window.
6. Rotate the cube.
Actual Results:  
The close window button of the window that you closed shows up. The only way I've found to remove it is by restarting the Desktop Effects.

Expected Results:  
No buttons floating.

This is not the only way to get this bug, because I never close windows in the Present Windows effect, however I almost always end up with at least one of those buttons floating after some hours of work. I use the two effects involved (Present Windows and Cube Rotation) very heavily as I like to distribute my windows in different virtual desktops.

I've reproduced this bug in two OpenSuSE-s and one Kubuntu. It's not exclusive to the last KDE version, as I remember having it for a long time.
