SUMMARY
Graphical issues with floating panel enabled when un-maximizing windows.
These issues do not occur with floating panel disabled.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Make sure the Floating panel is enabled
2. Maximize firefox (seems to only affect couple of apps, notably vscode and firefox)
3. Maximize another window on top
4. unmaximize window
5. notice how firefox window looks broken during the animation

OBSERVED RESULT
Firefox window looks broken during the animation

EXPECTED RESULT
It should look fine

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
(available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a terminal window)
Linux/KDE Plasma: 
KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.5.0

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 prasol258@gmail.com 2024-09-09 11:02:10 UTC
(Disabling floating panel and re-maximizing windows is a workaround)
Comment 2 prasol258@gmail.com 2024-09-09 11:05:41 UTC
Possibly a bug in kwin rather than plasmashell?

Maximizing firefox/vscode whille the panel is NOT floated (aka overlaps with a window) also leads to animation looking fine
