Ubuntu 12.04.5 metacity 1:2.34.1-1ubuntu11 unity-2d 5.14.0-0ubuntu2 When dragging operation is started, an a black box is drawn around the icon and leaves a trail behind it. I could only capture the black box but not the trail with gnome-screenshot. Also it leaves artifacts with tooltips. Windows with shadows are not effected however. ** Attachment added: Screenshot from 2015-07-27 17:55:57.png https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/metacity/+bug/964440/+attachment/4434784/+files/Screenshot%20from%202015-07-27%2017%3A55%3A57.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to metacity in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/964440 Title: Icons leave a trail of shadows with compositing effects enabled Status in metacity package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Oneiric, Unity 2d When compositing effects are enabled in metacity, icons dragged around the desktop leave a trail of shadows (i.e., the icon's shadow is not correctly erased at the last position but stays on the desktop), until the icon is dropped.

This is still present in raring :-(. That's two releases of Ubuntu that did not even try to address this ugly problem.
