--- Comment #1 from Alexis Murzeau <amub...@gmail.com> --- Created attachment 154936 --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=154936&action=edit Video of the icon fading patched to avoid the darkening. Animation slowed down x5. Patch1. I've found the code that manage the fading is in `IconItem::updatePaintNode` in `plasma-framework/src/declarativeimports/core/iconitem.cpp`. I found that doing this avoid the darkening: - Split the animation in 2 phases (first between 0% and 50% of the animation value, then between 50% and 100%): - First, keep the previous existing image (oldNode->firstChild) opacity 1.0 (100% opaque) and progressevly increase the new image (oldNode->lastChild) opacity from 0.0 to 1.0 - At the middle of the animation, both the previous and new images are rendered at 100% opacity. - Then secondly, progressively decrease the previous image opacity from 1.0 to 0.0 You can see the result in the video in attachment: plasma-framework-icon-fading-split-animation-patch1.mp4 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
