Bug ID: 498848
Summary: The "Fall Apart" desktop effect is triggered too loose
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 6.2.90
Platform: Neon
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: effects-various
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: ilikef...@waterisgone.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The "Fall Apart" desktop effect is triggered too loose (for too many cases).
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Boot KDE Neon.
2. Go to System Settings -> Desktop Effects.
3. Enable the "Fall Apart" one and click Apply.
4. Logout and login from KDE Neon.
5. Drag some windows to the left, top, right margin of the screen and release
the mouse button so they snap
OBSERVED RESULT
1. The effect is triggered for both logout and login animation.
2. The effect is triggered for all the windows snapping / tiling / maximizing.
EXPECTED RESULT
The effect should be triggered just for windows that are closed normally or
abnormally (killed programs too if possible).

Not sure how this FIXED bug report is similar to mine of it it's any help:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=405971
This FIXED (both in status and last comment) bug report, says that it should
not occur anymore, but it does (at least for me):
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=444166
And if we had a similar cool effect like "Fall Apart" for closing windows, then
it would be fine / nice to use the current "Fall Apart" effect for programs
that had crashed or have been killed, like this bug report I think it suggests:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=475475
It would make more sense and it would be more intuitive to understand what just
happened to some program.
But since there's no other nice effect similar to this one, I prefer to use
this one for normally closing windows.
Warning: Do no try to snap windows to screen corners with this effect enabled
as will make Plasma freeze completely!
I'll write another bug report about that soon.
