Another example (you can see how horizontal lines appear under the console cursor when it is blinking):
I don't know it is related, but I notice the transparency is lost in some cases in xfce4-terminal. Here you can find some black background under certain lines:
I found a workaround: adding
normal = { full-shadow = true;};
the strange lines disappear, but the background transparency is too dark (cause the shadow).
So, could you help me to avoid artifacts without using full-shadow? Thanks a lot!
Damn!! I just notice the problem also appears when trying to using XFCE4-ScreenShot. The previous workaround does not helps here. :_(
I finally discover that using:
use-damage = false;
solves the problem, but I feel disabling use-damage causes a bit of lag, so any new ideas are welcome. ;)
I think this is a duplicate of #50
@jEsuSdA can you try the latest git version of picom? It might have already been resolved.

It still happens. :_(
I started getting this issue in v8. Didn't happen with 7.5. Seems to be a regression. Xubuntu 18.04, NVidia 440. Video illustrating, and also illustrating it doesn't happen in 7.5: https://youtu.be/ONoM4dSjlGA

Might be related to the change of the default for --use-damage
from false
to true
.
Use --no-use-damage
(or use-damage = false
) as a workaround.
@TiZ-EX1 Can you get a trace? I think I fixed most of this problem, but apparently there is still some left.
Sorry it took so long to get back regarding this. I've attached the trace in a zip file. picom.trace.zip
Of note is that it doesn't seem to happen in the experimental GLX backend on v8. And indeed, use_damage = false
on the old backend does also get rid of it, per @tryone144's suggestion.
