1 year ago ok, first of all, your configuration file shows that you may be using a picom’s fork and in this case we can’t help you until the issue manifests in vanilla picom.
second, if you’re using vanilla picom, i recommend you to built it from the latest available commit in the next branch and check if the issue persists (you may use picom-git package from the aur).
awesome insists the issue does not exist within awesome, however the issue does not show its self in i3
have you filled an issue in awesomewm repository regarding this issue? it’d be useful to link it. afaik @yshui himself uses awesomewm and i doubt that he have this issue (otherwise he’d fixed it already :D).
4. Try to take a screenshot from any tool that uses the XGetImage(display, rootwindow, 0, 0, width, height, AllPlanes, ZPixmap); (so every screenshot tool, i used flameshot but i have tried with various other tools)
that way of taking screenshots sounds retro to me. i personally use maim, have you tried it?
does it happen on egl backend? xrender? legacy glx? legacy xrender?
