Can you reproduce this issue when you right-click on the desktop and choose "Desktop and Wallpaper"? (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #3) > Can you reproduce this issue when you right-click on the desktop and choose > "Desktop and Wallpaper"? No, I cannot reproduce this through the right-click menu. This is only reproducible through system settings. Furthermore, I observed that only the "Image → Slideshow → Image → Slideshow → ..." order will trigger the glitch; I cannot reproduce this with other wallpaper plugins. I can reproduce this with 6.1.3. I also noticed that moving the mouse cursor over the Positioning drop down removes the text glitch I can also reproduce on git-master. Additionally, just going from Image -> Slide show -> Image shows the glitch. Moving the cursor over the text fixes it like 6.1.3. I'm not able to reproduce this at all in git master, FWIW. Can you, Tracey? If not, I think we can call it fixed. I can still reproduce the font corruption / glitch on git-master Going from Image → Slideshow -> Image will sometimes show the font corruption (glitch). Positioning: Centered - the word "centered" will appear corrupted Sometimes I have to switch back and forth a few times to see it, but I can reliably reproduce the problem As an aside, after closing and re-opening System Settings a few times, it crashed. I'll handle that in a separate bug report. Created attachment 172375 [details]
Font corruption in Positioning text Centered
This screenshot shows the font corruption
(In reply to TraceyC from comment #8) > Created attachment 172375 [details] > Font corruption in Positioning text Centered > > This screenshot shows the font corruption I think I saw this in the past, I don't see it anymore with current master. What are your display settings, scale in particular ? I just rebuild workspace from master and re-tested. I'm no longer able to reproduce the bug.
I also can no longer reproduce in Plasma 6.1.5

Just the laptop display currently (git-master)

There was discussion about this recently, and it was noticed that you may need to be using the Noto Sans font to see the effect
Huanyu Liu, when you update your system to Plasma 6.1.5, this will probably be fixed for you

I played with the font settings, and found that the bug is reproducible only when using certain fonts at certain sizes. What's worse, the bug seems to be reproducible only at certain window sizes. The following fonts at 12pt can reproduce it reliably on my laptop (at the minimal window size of System Settings): - Noto Sans/Serif - Noto Sans/Serif CJK - FreeSans/FreeSerif (but not FreeMono) - Sarasa Gothic/UI/Fixed/... When using certain fonts, the glitch will happen to "Positioning" (instead of "Order"). You may need to switch the "Wallpaper type" several times before the glitch shows up. See the following screenshot (FreeSerif at 12pt). In addition, Liberation Sans at 14pt and Noto Sans at 11pt & 14pt (but not 13pt) can also reproduce it. If you change the window size, the glitch may or may not go away. At a specified combination of font, font size & window size, whether the glitch happens or not is determined. All the experiments above were done at the minimal window size of System Settings.

Glitch happened to "Positioning" (instead of "Order") with FreeSerif at 12pt
I was able to reproduce with Noto Serif 12pt using my laptop screen - 1920x1080@100% git-master Wayland Switched wallpaper type from Image to Slideshow (or back), noticed "Scaled and cropped" was corrupted as in the latest screenshot Sounds like https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=479891 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 479891 *** Please let us know if this isn't fixed with Plasma 6.3. |
