The above comment should say Compositor instead of composter. ** Description changed:

The application can be from wine, konsole, dolphin or any other application. When opened the screen flashes with a black background if it is opened up not as full size. It seems like there is another black layer layer that is flashing alongside the background image. If you move the smaller application window around it "erases" the flashing black background and removes the flashing if you "erase" all of the window. Though when you close and open another application it starts all over. There is not any flashing over a window opened so it takes up the full screen. Flashing only occurs over the desktop wallpaper. I have noticed this only happens after running a full screen application like a game. For example I run a game like Dying Light or Left 4 Dead 2 in steam and after I close out of the game, that is when I get the flashing. After a reboot everything is fine until I run another full screen application. I should note when I say full screen it isn't a window that is maximized. + Toggling the Compositor off will stop the issue. When turned back on + the flashing will still be there. + Expected results is no screen flashing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1587997 Title: Screen flashes when opening other windows.
