Description Kai Uwe Broulik 2010-09-19 00:36:46 UTC
Version:           SVN (using KDE 4.5.1) 
OS:                Linux

At playing around with desktop effects I came across that wobbly windows effect (which stretches and distort windows while moving them). It looks nice and smooth.
But when a window is constantly resizing itself (to the same size as it currently is) like virtualbox does (it might check for the guest OS's resolution and matches the window size to it) or kpatience when it is loading ressources that effect looks hasty and distorted. Cannot describe it properly. But especially when moving virtual machines (doesn‘t matter whether guest additions (the automatic resolution thing) are installed/enabled or not.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Addition: It is really related to resizing, as when I drag a window to the top of the screen to maximize it it really hasty flickers the window
