when for example i click on a window for example the "About Kde" the window will stay when i try close it. The only way to get rid of the stuck window is to click on the disable or enable compositor. Otherwise the window can not be moved or closed except by enabling or disabling the compositor. I want to state im using the intel graphics stack. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Click on the Help on a window 2. Find the About Kde option 3. Click on it Actual Results: This stuck windows stays wtih no way to move it or close it. Seems to be drawn even if i close plasmashell the window will stay Expected Results: the window should close and not pop up with this unmovable or uncloseable window.
Next time this happens please *before* suspending the compositor run (in konsole) qdbus org.kde.KWin /KWin supportInformation and attach the output here

thanks, it's probably the translucency effect. i guess you've a custom dialog opacity? (in doubt attach ~/.config/kwinrc) restarting the compositor (SHIFT+Alt+F12, twice) should clear the stage as well.
OP speaks of a dialog as well, since he didn'tr reply, let's optimistically assume it's the sam bug *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 342716 ***
