Bug ID: 513457
Summary: Kwin resets window open/close effect to "glide" after
a reboot
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version First 6.5.3
Reported In:
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: effects-window-management

SUMMARY
Kwin resets its window open/close animation to glide after reboot. It will
usually happen only after a reboot and not after power off+on (no hibernation)
I compared the kwinrc file after changing window open/close animation in
Animations kcm, there is a weird entry "glideEnabled[$d]" under "[Plugins]"
group.
I am attaching my [Plugins] Config on each kcm animation window open/close
setting
With "Scale" chosen:
[Plugins]
cubeEnabled=true
desktopchangeosdEnabled=true
dimscreenEnabled=true
glideEnabled[$d]
kinetic_maximizeEnabled=false
magiclampEnabled=true
squashEnabled=false
translucencyEnabled=true
With "Glide" Chosen
[Plugins]
cubeEnabled=true
desktopchangeosdEnabled=true
dimscreenEnabled=true
glideEnabled=true
kinetic_maximizeEnabled=false
magiclampEnabled=true
scaleEnabled=false
squashEnabled=false
translucencyEnabled=true
With "None" chosen:
[Plugins]
cubeEnabled=true
desktopchangeosdEnabled=true
dimscreenEnabled=true
glideEnabled[$d]
kinetic_maximizeEnabled=false
magiclampEnabled=true
scaleEnabled=false
squashEnabled=false
translucencyEnabled=true
AFAIK the reboot issue can be fixed by setting glideEnabled=false and
scaleEnabled=true manually in the kwinrc file - unless you change something in
the aninations kcm.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Pick the window "scale" animation
2. Reboot
3. It's back to "glide"
4. Note that it does not happen 100% of the time, but for me it happens few
times a week on two different machines.
OBSERVED RESULT
Windows open/close animation resets to glide and glitches when windows close.
EXPECTED RESULT
Windows open/close animation stays consistent
