After updating Plasma to 5.5 I noticed some new behaviour in desktop grid. Hovering over a window with the mouse causes it to zoom/pop. Personally I prefer desktop grid without that effect, it feels a bit smoother. The zooming also seems to cause some issues with alignment when exiting the grid (probably the zoom de-activating late). I would appreciate it if it could be turned off, probably through the "Desktop Grid" settings found in "Desktop Effects". Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Update from Plasma 5.4 to 5.5. Actual Results: Hovering over a window in desktop grid makes it zoom/pop a bit. No way to turn it off. Expected Results: Hovering over a window in desktop grid makes it zoom/pop a bit. It can be turned off in the "Desktop Effects" => "Desktop Grid" settings.
This covers the exit condition (and another concern) https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/126434/
