Compositing issues #48

Closed jleclanche closed 10 years ago

jleclanche commented 10 years ago

Picture says it all: image

With kwin and compositing on, windows have a "fade" effect. This fade effect appears on the screengrab window and causes ghost window effects to appear on all shots. Really annoying.

Don't know about a solution...

Im not sure if this is the right fix. I'll ask martin.

This is a "dirty hack", not good fix - but, it work (on my Gentoo KDE, I'm not tested on the other systems with KDE).

jleclanche commented 10 years ago

Yeah, the problem is it wont work with slower compositing effects. It also does delay the screenshot by 400ms which can be a problem.

Loooong standing and known issue. No we don't have a solution for this yet, but I have it on my todo list for KWin/5. Will probably end up as a convenient method in KWindowEffects.
