This issue report is quite old. Can you please confirm, that it still persists with KDE 5.23? (In reply to kde.org from comment #4) > This issue report is quite old. Can you please confirm, that it still > persists with KDE 5.23? Mh, I think it does - but to be honest, meanwhile I have forgotten how it's being configured. Nevertheless, panels as well as konsole background still is completely opaque, not slightly translucent as it was before 5.13 and as I'd like it to be. That's with Plasma 5.23.2, which broke quite a bit of additional stuff, especially concerning session window placement in a multi monitor setup after login or changing the monitor setup, and with the task switcher (where's the nice 3D gallery view gone which I used for ages?)... This bug was reported against an outdated version of KWin. We have made many changes since the. If the issue persists in newer versions can you reopen the bug report updating the version number. |
Created attachment 113915 [details] Xorg.0.log Yesterday I upgraded from Plasma 5.12.5 to 5.13.3. Since then, compositing apparently does not work any more in application windows. Plasmashell panels have an ugly grey opaque background, the same holds for krunner and also the Konsole background, which is solid black. Also killing and restarting krunner or plasmashell does not help, so it seems to be unrelated to the application start order and the time when compositing is enabled. Compositing in general is active, the application windows have soft shadows and "komposeé", "wobbly windows" and task switching visual effects work just fine. How do I debug this? Compositing in application windows worked fine until yesterday's upgrade from 5.12.5. The Xorg.0.log is attached. Platform is KDE Neon x64 based on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.
