Description tromzy 2017-03-02 13:27:08 UTC 
On Wayland, the "Sheet" effect that animates the opening of modal dialog windows, does not work.
Comment 1 Martin Flöser 2017-03-02 19:21:18 UTC 
There are no "modal dialog windows" on Wayland yet. Thus the effect cannot work. For X11 windows it should also work on Wayland.
Comment 2 tromzy 2017-03-02 20:35:48 UTC 
Yes, you're right : the effect works perfectly on Gnome File manager's Property modal dialog, which uses XWayland.
Comment 3 Vlad Zahorodnii 2023-01-24 13:53:16 UTC 
As said above, there are no modal dialogs on wayland, and afaik upstream doesn't want to introduce such state. Cantfix on wayland.
