It is that alternate fix in compiz 0.9.4 which is flawed and the cause of this bug. The fix that was in maverick was essentially a hack. We can't have it upstream because it paints windows twice. There is a smarter way to do the shadow clipping the way I have it upstream, namely, you need to project the transformed window geometry of windows below the shadow and set that to be the clip region of the panel shadow.

Re: [Bug 731685] Re: Panel shadow conflicts with Window shadow in Ubuntu Classic Desktop Session
The problem is that the clipping algorithm for the shadows is rather ... simple. Basically when doing the panel shadow we look for windows that are intersecting the shadow and don't draw the shadow there. Fixing this would be quite complicated, since it requires that you project the full geometry including the shape region of the decoration in order to find a perfect intersection region.

To clarify, this is because shadows are drawn at the same level that their respective window is, so because we have to stack panels on top of everything else, the shadow would also go on top of everything else which looks ugly. Drawing the shadow underneath everything else means that we essentially have to paint panels twice, which isn't really that great.

[Bug 731685] Re: Panel shadow conflicts with Window shadow in Ubuntu Classic Desktop Session
If it's unity-window-decorator that draws the normal window shadows, why shouldn't it also be made to draw the panel shadow in the same way? At most, unity-window-decorator would need a little bit of logic to match the Dock window type. Admittedly that might affect the Launcher too... But my limited understanding of the unity code is suggesting to me that there are two separate components which draw shadows, and really there should be only one. I guess it falls into the bucket of re-unifying compiz-window-decorator and unity-window-decorator. I'm sure I saw a blueprint for that somewhere...

Re: [Bug 731685] Re: Panel shadow conflicts with Window shadow in Ubuntu Classic Desktop Session
In case you're wondering, the relevant code for the shadow clipping is here: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~smspillaz/compiz- core/trunk/view/head:/plugins/decor/src/decor.cpp#L77 What that does is for panels at least, recalculates every time a window changes geometry, what should be overlapping the panel shadow and then creates a region (eg nonrectangular space) of where the panel shadow should be drawn so as /not/ to overlap those windows. Then on ::glDraw it clips the drawing of the panel shadow to that space. However, this only takes into account the window position on the assumption that *every window is exactly rectangular and not transformed*. Which is obviously not the case considering that the decorations have rounded corners. Its probably possible to re-use some of the code from blur here: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~smspillaz/compiz-core/trunk/view/head:/plugins/blur/src/blur.cpp#L1215, which is what blur uses to get the *exact nonrectangular clipping area* for the blur underneath the window. Unfortunately that code is largely undocumented and I haven't been able to make it work for this case. Maybe a mathematical genius can figure it out :) On Wed, Jun 8, 2011 at 3:31 PM, Sam Spilsbury smspil...@gmail.com wrote: On Wed, Jun 8, 2011 at 3:16 PM, Daniel van Vugt vanv...@gmail.com wrote: If it's unity-window-decorator that draws the normal window shadows, why shouldn't it also be made to draw the panel shadow in the same way?
