Bug ID: 455173 Summary: The Plasma sliding popups effect has a white flash in animation, with dark themes. Product: kwin Version: 5.24.90 Platform: Archlinux Packages OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: effects-various Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: ad.liu....@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY With a dark global theme, the systray's sliding out animation has a quite visible white flash. (see attachment1) In attachment2,3,4 you can see that the popup is significantly brighter at the start of animation than the end, causing the flash. It's actually caused by the "Improve contrast and readability behind semi-transparent windows" effect. When this effect is off, no more flash in the sliding out animation. Moreover, this effect makes all Plasma panels significantly brighter when there's a window behind, compared to when no window behind, or when the effect is off. (see attachment5,6) STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Click on a systray icon OBSERVED RESULT The popup's sliding out animation has a white flash. EXPECTED RESULT The popup's sliding out animation has no flash.
