So... I just googled another thing that bothered me. I recognized,that most of the animations on my system are gone. After googling, what the problem could be, someone suggested checking compositor settings. I check mine, found that Rendering backend was set to OpenGL 2.0 and i changed it to OpenGL 3.1. Because newer versions are always better :D. After changing the rendering backend, the animations are fixed now. I also checked Spectacle and it is working again. Even when returning to OpenGL 2.0 everything seems to be working again. While writing this comment I discovered the following: When suspending the compositor with qdbus org.kde.KWin /Compositor suspend the behavior is as i described in the bug report, when enabling it again the behavior is as normal. So I think something must have been disabling my Compositor. (In reply to Mike from comment #1) > So... > > I just googled another thing that bothered me.

So I think something must have been disabling my > Compositor. I changed the title accordingly (added suspended Compositor) Same issue until compositor changed. Also doesn't occur after changing compositor to previous setting. Very frustrating bug. Operating System: Kubuntu 20.10 KDE Plasma Version: 5.19.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.74.0 Qt Version: 5.14.2 Kernel Version: 5.8.0-29-generic OS Type: 64-bit Processors: 12 × Intel® Xeon® CPU E5-1650 v2 @ 3.50GHz Memory: 31.3 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Radeon RX 580 Series I also am experiencing this. It was very strange as I use this function all the time. This was on a raspberry pi manjaro arm install with compositing turned off (as I always turn it off so 60fps hardware decode video works well). I verified that if I turn the compositor on, it does indeed work correctly, but it honestly feels like a race condition, like with no delay, the window manager changes happen so quickly that something is logically broken. I tried leaving composition ON and setting animation speeds to "instant" and it worked fine with no delay there as well, just with no composition, it fails at zero delay. 1 second makes it work fine with no composition, so that's the workaround for me. Almost entered a duplicate bug but the bugtracker stopped me dead in my tracks ;) It is my first experience on this issue after doing a system update (upgrade for Tumbleweed). And this issue disappears after toggling on and off the compositor. My system: openSUSE Tumbleweed: 20220523 KDE Plasma: 5.24.5 Qt: 5.15.2 KDE Frameworks: 5.94.0 KDE Applications: 22.04.1 Kernel: 5.17.9-1-default Is this still a problem with 23.04? I currently don't use KDE Neon anymore. So I can't say for sure. I'm running Kubuntu and Manjaro on two different machines which both have Spectacle 22.12. But I haven't experienced this problem in a long time. Dear Bug Submitter, This bug has been in NEEDSINFO status with no change for at least 15 days.
