Created attachment 114866 [details] Original layout I have three monitors, which are not aligned in a straight way, to match the physical layout. The resulting layout can be seen in the first attachment. When using the desktop cube animation to switch virtual desktops, corruption is shown on my screen. This bug dates back to the kde4 days, as far as I know (it might have been fixed at some point, though). I am using an Intel igpu on this specific computer, with Mesa 18.1.8. Top-left, with the shape of an auto-hiding panel (see bug 382829) that sits here, appears a part of another activity. I do not see that myself (just the panels that becomes semi-transparent; with the right background) when switching desktops, it only appears on the screenshot. Screenshots taken with spectacle

(a) can you reproduce this issue when all screens are aligned in a straight line? (b) can you reproduce this bug if you disable the blur effect (and the background contrast effect)?
> (a) can you reproduce this issue when all screens are aligned in a straight line? > (b) can you reproduce this bug if you disable the blur effect (and the background contrast effect)? Short version: (a) Yes. (b) Yes with blur, no with background contrast. Longer version: (a) It seems to happen only if the two following conditions are met: * The two screens on the left share the same Y-coordinates * The screen on the right is lower than this. It doesn't happen if either: * One screen is disabled * The screen on the right is above * The two left screens are misaligned (b) The problem seems fixed now without background contrast. Furthermore, it didn't reappear after re-enabling it. Both blur and background contrast were originally only partially checked. I have no idea what this means. They are both fully checked now, and it seems to be working. This survived across a session connect-and disconnect. That means I can't reproduce the bug anymore for now. I'll write back if it happens again. Thanks for your help :)

No. I was able to reproduce this bug with with the blur effect disabled. Then I am pretty sure I re-enabled it. I have not been able to reproduce it after disabling the background contrast effect, either with or without the blur effect. As a matter of fact, I have not been able to reproduce this bug ever since I switched the background contrast effect off, then on again.
Thank you for the info. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 362360 ***
