Bug ID: 449391 Summary: Shutting down when applications are opened can cause a lot of glitches Product: plasmashell Version: master Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk Reporter: ncqm3...@anonaddy.me CC: plasma-b...@kde.org Target Milestone: 1.0 SUMMARY STEPS TO REPRODUCE Open multiple apps and shutdown. I suggest doing this with Qt and GTK apps together. OBSERVED RESULT Currently, shutting down with applications opened seems to cause a race condition or something, where applications are closing and Plasma itself is also ending its processes. This causes some glitches like: window frame disappearing, the shadow of the window frame losing its alpha channel and displaying a black/white background and desktop freezing for some seconds. EXPECTED RESULT Maybe Plasma components shouldn't shutdown until applications are closed? In Windows, there is a smooth experience as if the user is closing a lot of windows at the same time. Also, there is a screen informing that some programs are blocking the shutdown and ask the user to force close them while agreeing that data will be lost.
