Created attachment 120064 [details] A short video demonstrating the problem with zoom on hover SUMMARY Icons in Latte Tasks Plasmoid don't always zoom immediately when cursor moves above them. They expand directly to the maximum zoom when they finally do react to the cursor. Rarely the icons will stay zoomed after the cursor leaves the dock area and only return to their default size when cursor touches and leaves them again. This is a minor annoyance, but it makes the Zoom On Hover feature feel not-so-smooth. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Create a dock with Latte Tasks Plasmoid 2. Set "Zoom On Hover" to anything but 0 % 3. Move cursor above the icons OBSERVED RESULT Icons don't always zoom immediately and they often skip the transition from default size to the zoomed size. EXPECTED RESULT Icons zoom smoothly. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS KDE Plasma Version: 5.15.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.57.0 Qt Version: 5.12.3 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Arch Linux, Kernel 5.0.13-arch1-1-ARCH Mesa 19.0.3-1 Plasma running on X11 GPU: Radeon RX 580 8 GB CPU: i5 4690k
I cant reproduce this in my system... please send me your layout to test it out
From your video the only faulty behavior is the gap between libreoffice and bits warden... I really want to test your layout in order to find out how that nointeraction ggao occured between them
Created attachment 120065 [details] Layout file of the affected dock Here is the layout used in the video. I do get this behavior with other layouts too. It does not only affect the gap between the applications (or just certain applications) like in the example video I attached. This also happens when cursor is moved directly above an icon. It doesn't happen all of the time, but pretty frequently. There might be something else wrong with my setup since I've had this issue for months now, but since I rarely use the effect I haven't written a bug report for it.

For me the issue trying to reproduce is only one... The gap between your launchers in the video, that shouldnt happen! BUT I cant reproduce... 1. In your layout by changing effects speed to x2 I felt a small improve in responsiveness 2. I uploaded a new commit in master to debug this, please use latest master and run Latte from command prompt with: "latte-dock -d --graphics" 3. I want one more video with [2] enabled and I am interested especially in the GAP situation
4. I want also your Latte Mouse sensitivity setting at Latte Global Preferences window. This is next to the Layouts Editos tab
Created attachment 120082 [details] New video with Latte Dock launched with the commands -d --graphics I updated Latte Dock to the latest version in master ran it with the following command "$ latte-dock -d --graphics". In this video I have set animations speed to x2 if that makes a difference. The Mouse Sensitivity for Parabolic effect is set to "High".

That is understandable. I'll try to figure out what is wrong with my system. I'll report back if I find anything.
can you please provide also the "env" output?
Created attachment 120115 [details] Env Sure thing! I've added it as an attachment since it is somewhat long.
(In reply to Antti Aho from comment #10) > Created attachment 120115 [details] > Env > > Sure thing! I've added it as an attachment since it is somewhat long. it looks ok.. For the video demonstrating the issue are you using mouse for the hovering?
Yes. I am using a regular USB connected mouse.
Not sure if this helps, but I uninstalled the latest version from master and installed "latte-dock" package from Arch repositories (version 0.8.8). I still get this same issue. Maybe there is something wrong with my system then?

2. You can also make the video again with: latte-dock -d --with-window I am interested in contains mouse and task index values in the window that will be shown when the issue appears
Created attachment 120184 [details] New video with commands -d --with-window. The window on the left is for the top panel and the window on the right is for the bottom dock. Sorry for my late reply! I updated Latte Dock to the latest version before recording this video. It seems that when the issue appears "Contains Mouse (flag)" is set to "True", but "Task Hovered" stays -1. This also happens when the cursor is directly above a task icon - not only when hovering the area between two task icons. Unfortunately I don't have access to another mouse at the moment, but I can try to find another one next week.
If you disable the Title Tooltips from Behavior page does it help?
Unfortunately no.
I finally got to try this with another mouse and the problem persists. I've noticed that sometimes the tooltip for the hovered application appears, but the icon still does not zoom. I'll check if this also happens on a clean install of Arch Linux.
I also tried to "Set Priority" to the highest possible on System Monitor, but this did not make a difference.
Just one more thing: this also seems to happen on Wayland.
is this still valid with Latte v0.9 ?
