Do you see this issue in any other apps?

Or in any other parts of Dolphin where the tooltip does not overlap with the location bar?

Yes in any QT app, even Libreoffice. In gtk apps morphing doesn't work.

Thanks. Does the problem still happen if you temporarily switch to the Fusion style in System Settings > Appearance > Application Style?

I did some experiments by turning some desktop effects on and off. I don't know precisely what changed the situation, maybe having changed the values of the blur effect, but now with Dolphin I don't have any more problems. Instead they keep having them with some applications like octopi, libreoffice, but also the systemd module of kcm.

Using fusion there continue to be these glitches. They are there even with a different user, so I don't think they depend on the configuration.

What if you turn off all desktop effects and compositing with Alt+Shift+F12?

Of course it works, it also disables the morphing effect. That's what gives me the problem, if I disable only that there is no corruption problem, even with compositing enabled.
Comment 7 Nate Graham 2023-08-21 18:49:02 UTC
So to be clear: when you disable only the "Morphing Popups" effect, there's no problem?

Yes, no corruption. Of course I lose the morphing effect, which is so beautiful and I would really hate to give it up!

Thanks for confirming!
