Bug ID: 468590 Summary: Window for mail writing does not repaint properly on Wayland Classification: Applications Product: kontact Version: 5.22.3 Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: mail Assignee: kdepim-bugs@kde.org Reporter: gik-kb...@flump.de Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY *** NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols. See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports *** STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Start KDE/Plasma with Wayland. 2. Press "New Message" in Kontact (in the Kmail view). 3. Change "To", the "Subject", or add some message text. OBSERVED RESULT When adding a new mail as "To", the GUI draws a new line, which overdraw the "Subject" line, so that is is not visible anymore. When typing something in the subject line, the Window title changes accordingly, but the text in the subject field remains invisible. When adding a message (I use the KMail plugin to call an external editor), the external editor opens, I type the message, close the window, and nothing happens. All of the above GUI issues fixes itself when resizing the window or pressing "Send->Abort". So I'm pretty sure somewhere is a missing repaint. EXPECTED RESULT The GUI updates immediately. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: - macOS: - Linux/KDE Plasma: Gentoo Linux with Plasma 5.27.4 (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.104.0 Qt Version: 5.15.8 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION This bug happens only on Wayland. Forcing the program to xwayland with `QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb kontact` also fixes the problem. This bug is not new, I experienced it at least since last summer, so two(?) Plasma releases ago.
