Bug ID: 400171
Summary: QuickTiled Windows Should Not be Shadowed
Product: kwin
Version: git master
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: decorations
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: alexmason...@outlook.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Windows that have been QuickTiled (snapped to the side of the screen) draw
shadows, which is inconsistent with how other platforms manage tiling (GNOME,
macOS SplitView). Suggest removing property _KDE_NET_WM_SHADOW from QuickTiled
windows.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enable window decoration shadows in Breeze.
2. QuickTile two windows side by side.
3. Observe shadow overlapping the unfocused window.
SOFTWARE VERSIONS
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.1 and below
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.51 and below
Qt Version: 5.11 and below
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Ideally the two tiled windows would still have shadows but be on an equal
'z-index', but it seems easier to just remove the shadows to fix the issue.
