Plasma 5.26 Beta - Window appears before animation plays

[mmcnutt]

Describe the Bug

Installed 5.25.90 (plasma 5.26 beta) and the animation and window draw orders are out of sequence for both opening and closing windows. Opening a new Window has the Window appear, play the animation and then redraw the window. Closing a Window has the the animation play over the Window before the Window disappears. If relevant this is a Wayland session

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Set an effect in Kwin Effects
2. Open Window
3. Observe Window appears, animation plays over it, Window flickers and then is redrawn
4. Close Window
5. Animation plays over Window, only then does it disappear instead of as the animation plays

System

Please complete the following information:

• Linux distribution Fedora Rawhide
• Burn-My-Windows version v21
• Plasma Shell version: 5.25.90

On KDE plasma 5.26 this problem persistent.

Ohh, thanks for pinging me on this issue. This totally slipped through :cry:

I just tested it on the latest KDE Neon and I can indeed reproduce the issue. I think that it's rather a KWin issue, so I'll open a bug report over there.

Edit: You can find the report here: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=460277

Ok, this was resolved extremely fast by the KDE guys. The fix should be released with KWin 5.26.1 in the coming week! I'll close this issue once it it released.

i am on plasmashell 5.26.0, i cloned the effect to my home directory, ran git pull but i still have this issue, am i missing an extra command or just need to wait the update to kwin 5.26.1 ?

[Schneegans]

Yeah, you have to wait for KWin 5.26.1.

Awesome, glad it's getting sorted out quickly. (seriously I'm still stuck in the windows' "welp, the latest update broke the photoviewer, guess I'll wait a few months" mindset)

This is now fixed in the latest version of KWin!
