Description Anton Kreuzkamp 2016-07-08 10:42:22 UTC
While testing plasma with wayland I recognized glitches when hovering items in right-click menus.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open some xwayland window
2. Do a right-click or open a menu from the menubar
3. Hover some menu items

The item will only be highlighted sometimes. They do receive hover events, but rendering seems faulty. I've seen the issue occur with Qt4 and 5-based applications, as well chromium and firefox.
It doesn't happen with weston.
