Hi all, speaking with fredrikh about speed with window masks some things have emerged: returning a qbitmap is a bit wrong, since it will have to be converted to a qregion each time, so.. should the framesvg mask function return a qregion? this would of course break the api, so quite of a problem would be source compatible but not binary compatible can still be done before 4.2? (talk now or be silent forever?) worth it?
also, now the shaped windows like dialogs and tooltips uses clip masks, using only input masks when composite is on would be faster, like krunner does since today as i can see.. buuuut, for now it's a bit a nooo, because kwin will attempt to use its own shadow and krunner looks really nasty now :/ as for this second problem, so it should be postponed for 4.3 i think (and still make krunner set the clip mask always) and then either find another way for disabling shadows in kwin, or have kwin to draw better shadows with shaped windows (and this thing totally doesnt depend from us:)) this things i wrote does make sense at all? what should be done?
