[kwin] [Bug 406746] XRender renders some things with too much transparency
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=406746 --- Comment #12 from Wyatt Childers --- (In reply to Vlad Zagorodniy from comment #1) > Panels look more opaque because of blur and background constrast effect, > both require OpenGL. Actually I think your assessment here might be the right one. The variation in darkness I'm noticing might just be in my head/based on what's behind the calendar... Part of what tricked me I think is my desktop background is dark, so when you have a dark desktop background, and a very bright window the contrast between the panel and the calendar is quite striking. When you have a dark window, the contrast isn't nearly as striking. Thus the dark window case makes it look like it's working, the light window makes it look like it's broken.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=406746 --- Comment #11 from Wyatt Childers --- I've attached two images, one correct, one incorrect. I switched to OpenGL briefly to get the correct look. I feel like I've seen it even more transparent than what it is in the broken image I uploaded, but you can definitely tell there's a rendering discrepancy. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I'll update the issue with a screenshot of the broken state as soon as it occurs again. It's intermittent, and has been occurring for quite some time. I switched to an nvidia card, and then switched to XRender from OpenGL as a workaround for https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=353983. This issue is cosmetic, but annoying lol. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

What if you actually want transparent panels? :) Well, compositing is enabled, through XRender. I think you're miss understanding a bit. So, I'm specifically talking about "panel pop-ups"/pop overs (things like clicking on the time to see the dates in the month, the part the pops up when you click the time). There are 3 cases: - Composition on working correctly: Month view is rendering correctly, with the correct opacity/transparency, just like they would on OpenGL, blurred, and simi transparent. - Compositing on but broken: Month view is being rendered wa too transparent, almost like a glass theme, rather than breeze. - Compositing off: Moth view is 100% opaque, no transparency. This issue is about the second case, where breeze is being rendered as if it were a glass theme sometimes under XRender, never happens under OpenGL. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Hmm, if compositing is turned off, it makes sense to draw opaque panels. Though I don't think such thinking applies when using XRender rendering backend. What if you actually want transparent panels? :) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

That's true, but plasmashell does know when blur and contrast effect are running and switch to a different more opaque version. If OP has a transparent panel it means something along that path isn't working.

I believe there's something else going on here. As an example, when I wrote this bug it was occurring, however, at the present time still using XRender my "panel pop-ups" (I really don't know what to call them haha), are the proper transparency. It's an intermittent issue. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
