SUMMARY
When the "Eye on screen" animation for peeking at the desktop is enabled, when you stop peeking at the desktop, windows will get stuck in the bottom right of the screen, sometimes flashing, as the animation plays.
This does not happen when you start peeking at the desktop, only when you stop.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
I haven't tried this on other systems yet, but I do know it still happened on an earlier install of Fedora.

1. Enable eye on screen animation in system settings.
2. Peek at desktop, through shortcut or widget.

OBSERVED RESULT
Animation glitches and window gets stuck.

EXPECTED RESULT
Animation works like when starting to peek at desktop.

After looking through #481100 and it's duplicates I think this is the same issue.
