brave window, shaded and moved
Some more observations to this issue: with my revert patch applied (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=450582), the shading/shuttering does work at times and produce the described behavior at other times. I've learned to "work-around" it by switching to an open konsole window, and back to firefox. This often fixes this behavior. The window content, if it keeps being displayed often flickers at a high frequency. Interesting, I cannot get a proper shade effect to work under any circumstances. Shading, then switching to a Konsole and then back just continues to display the old window contents. In fact, anything I drag into the old window area stays there and becomes part of the zombie window display.

Here's the successful procedure: DC (double click) Window header to shade it, content is still displayed. DC again to redisplay the correct content. Switch/Open konsole on the same workspace. Switch back to dysfunctional window. DC again. Works in 3 of 4 cases for me. Hmm, try as I might I cannot duplicate that. It just continues to exhibit the broken behavior. I just forced a rollback to kwin-5.24.5, and ran $ kwin_x11 --replace And right away all windows are shading properly. This appears resolved now in 5.25.2? If you agree @hpj I will close as fixed.

I've disabled my revert in the relevant build, but it takes a while to get this tested on my system zoo (because I and couple of others, that I infected with the Tumbleweed virus rely heavily on operational systems to do our day to day work). I restored a system backup on my primary workstation two times already related to this issue. FTR, my build is available here: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:frispete:Tumbleweed/kwin5 I believe this is resolved in 5.25.2 and now also 5.25.3. Closing |
