Bug ID: 500535
Summary: Wayland: Translucent window artifacts remain on
wallpaper after minimizing inactive windows (NVIDIA
RTX 3070)
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 6.3.1
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: 2knch...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
When window translucency is enabled in KDE Plasma, minimizing an inactive
(translucent) window causes the translucent image to remain embedded in the
wallpaper until either rebooting or running 'kwin_wayland --replace &'
Environment:
- KWin version: 6.3.1
- Distribution: Arch Linux
- Session type: Wayland
- GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3070
- NVIDIA driver: 570.86.16
- CPU: Ryzen 5800H
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enable window translucency in KDE Plasma
2. Open any window and let it become inactive (translucent)
3. Minimize the translucent window
4. Observe that the translucent window image remains stuck on the wallpaper
Current Workaround:
Running 'kwin_wayland --replace &' temporarily fixes the issue until it occurs
again.
Configuration:
~/.config/kwinrc contents:
[Compositing]
AnimationSpeed=2
Backend=XRender
GLCore=true
GLPreferBufferSwap=n
HiddenPreviews=6
OpenGLIsUnsafe=false
WindowsBlockCompositing=false
[Effect-translucency]
ComboboxPopups=81
Dialogs=80
Inactive=81
IndividualMenuConfig=true
MenuOpacity=100
MoveResize=100
[Plugins]
minimizeanimationEnabled=false
translucencyEnabled=true
Additional Notes:
- Issue persists regardless of compositor backend (OpenGL/XRender)
- Issue persists with different translucency settings
- Issue persists with minimize animations disabled
