Fading flags causes desktop to dissappear #6

Open MalcolmReed-ent opened 2 weeks ago

Environment:

Whats Happening: When i run fastcompmgr with the flags in the README.md "fastcompmgr -o 0.4 -r 12 -c -C" it works perfectly fine, but when i try to use fading, it causes DWM to become unresponsive, i cannot use any of the keybindings and the only way to fix it is to go to another virtual console by "CTRL & ALT & F2" and "pkill fastcompmgr"

The video down below shows me running fastcomp and the entire WM goes unresponsive, i was wondering whether thats a bug or a nonexistent feature

Error: Command: "fastcompmgr -I 0.028 -O 0.03 -F -f"

Flags: -I fade-in-step Opacity change between steps while fading in. (default 0.028) -O fade-out-step Opacity change between steps while fading out. (default 0.03) -f Fade windows in/out when opening/closing. -F Fade windows during opacity changes.

Cheers and thanks for the effort in reporting this bug. However, in the README it currently states:

On the downside, fading is currently broken

Sorry for that, but fixing fading is an effort that I cannot spend right now.

Mhm, maybe I should remove the flags meanwhile ...
