Most of the flashing is due to the animation plugin that triggers an effect when a menu closes. Scrubing the menubar create a rapid succession of those effects and products the artifacts. If the fade on close option is removed from the animation plugin, the artifacts go away.
We can't workaround either the animation or suppress it now, unless we change the design requirement to have fade on close. ** Changed in: unity Assignee: Loïc Molinari (loic.molinari) => (unassigned) ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Assignee: Loïc Molinari (loic.molinari) => (unassigned) ** Changed in: unity Milestone: 3.8.8 => backlog -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/687567 Title: Global menu causes white "flashes" when scrubbing/moving with mouse fast over menus -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
