Issues with window effects on 2.25.5 #31

Open ghost opened 1 year ago

ghost commented 1 year ago

Window will stop being blurred while window effects like "Wobbly windows" are played.

luisbocanegra commented 1 year ago

Wouldn't this be responsibility of KWin? Native blurs are disabled while executing Desktop effects (Konsole is an example of this), same applies for Window Decorations that apply blurs to titlebars (like Klassy), and even the application launcher when you drag it around. Maybe this is intended for performance/technical limitations?

It's intended behavior, see this bug report https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=391819

The problem is that the blur works with rectangular regions only, transformed windows won't work properly.

This has been fixed for animations and effects that do not modify the shape of the window:

  • Slideback
  • Maximize
  • Desktop grid
  • Present windows
