--- Comment #1 from Holger <private_l...@yahoo.com> --- Today I found a new quality: - I got a ballon-popup for some updates and clicked the button in there to open discover - I installed the updates (just some libraries, no reboot advised) - on closing discover, I found the windows below staying darkened Now, desktop 1 is mirrored as a darkened ghost on other desktops. If the window in desktop 1 was in the foreground last, it will be drawn over the windows of desktop 2. By chance I had a LibreOffice Calc under the updates as the next window grabbing the focus when the updates were done. So it is not necessarily associated with Firefox. In Calc, when I now open the "Save as..." dialog, Calc gets even darker. But the dialog and also the menus of Calc are fine. In addition, on that first deskop in the background there was also a Firefox window - one of multiple windows, while the other windows of the same Firefox process are on different desktops and don't get darkened, that window on the first desktop is also darkened. But what is really peculiar, if I open a tab with youtube on desktop 1 in that affected window, the ghost as seen on desktop 2 will keep playing a live view of the video. I can even arrange the Calc and the Firefox window side by side, so they both show as ghost on desktop 2 or any other desktop. Only all the windows that were at that moment on desktop1 leave a ghost. Moving or opening a new window on desktop1, it does not get a ghost. So there are now two independent ghost rectangles, that depending on order of last activation I can lay over and under a third window on desktop 2. OTH moving one of the darkened windows to the second desktop will now leave the ghost immediately in place on desktop 1. Switching to desktop2 I can interact with the still dark window and even move it back to desktop 1. This time the ghosts are removed by deactivating and reactivating the effect: "darken windows for system operation mode". I explicitly verified by deactiving and reactivating the "darken parent" and the "darken inactive" effects first without the ghost vanishing. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
