This makes the compositor still draw them, which leads to unwanted artifacts on desktop. [Test Case] * Try dragging a bookmark from nautilus window to desktop; * There should be no artifacts remaining on the desktop. [Regression Potential] The fix is adding two lines and should not cause any regressions. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm using metacity in 16.04. Having opened nautilus with some folders on the left area (with favorite locations) if a accidentaly drag one location a permanent rectangular area with the name of that folder will remain on desktop in that location that the drop was 'made' and sits on top of every windwos sth very annoyning.
