Description TYY331 2017-12-31 02:16:28 UTC
Created attachment 109600 [details]
Image of the Magnifier utility

Observed behavior:
Magnifier utility presents corrupted image
Expected behavior:
Image is presented correctly

Additional info.
This bug might be related to compositing as selecting XRenderer backend fixes the image corruption and the utility works as expected, using OpenGL2.0 or OpenGL 3.1 backend produces the bug.
I'm running an Intel GPU, Kernel 4.10.0-42-generic, KDE Neon user edition.

The systemsettings section that is displayed in the screenshot is special because it uses OpenGL itself. Is this issue visible always or only with those OpenGL windows?

The issue is always present no matter the content being displayed.

The only solutions at the moment, either take Xrender or downgrade to kwin 5.11.2-1

OS Arch Linux
Graphics Nvidia with proprietary driver

Can you still reproduce the bug? If so, can you please give more information how to reproduce it?

I can't reproduce the bug anymore, i'm using an Nvidia setup so I guess it's good on other GPUs

I forgot this bug report, since kwin 5.13.1-1, this problem no longer exists
