Description tromzy 2016-06-19 08:49:03 UTC
On Plasma 5.7 beta in a Wayland session, there is a lag of about one second when minimizing a window. The lag happens also when restarting a window. Plus, the animation does not work for non Qt applications.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enable A minimizing Kwin effect ("Minimize" or "Magic Lamp")
2. Minimize a window
3. Maximize it

Actual Results:  
Most often, there is a one second lag before the animation starts

Expected Results:  
Immediate minimizing animation.

Works fine here on my system.
Comment 2 tromzy 2016-06-20 12:33:47 UTC
I tried again and I found something. Actually it is not a one second lag. The animation will play only when my pointer leaves the task in the Task Manager. As long as the pointer stays in the area, the animation does not play.

I edited the title for better explanation. Forget the "one second thing", it is false. The animation plays only if my mouse pointer leaves the task manager area.
Comment 4 tromzy 2016-08-26 22:33:25 UTC
It is fixed in Plasma 5.7.4.
Comment 5 tromzy 2016-08-31 14:45:42 UTC
Actually no, it happens again. One time, it behaved correctly so I thought it was fixed, but since then, it started behaving oddly again, though I did not change anything on my setup.

The window minimizes or restores only after a few seconds OR after my mouse pointer leaves the task area in the task manager. I don't know what other info I could provide...

 This is fixed in Plasma 5.8 beta (for real this time).
