[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1732245] Re: Fullscreen game windows vertically offset after returning from Alt-Tab
I found a work-around: disabling animations in GNOME Tweaks solves the issue and the whole Top Bar (not a ghost of it) and the Dock are visible for a very short time until the window becomes fullscreen. I suggest to include an option to disable these animations when fullscreen windows are present because they also cause frame drops. As for upgrading I'm patiently waiting for the dot release. Fingers crossed tomorrow is the day. :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1732245 Title: Fullscreen game windows vertically offset after returning from Alt-Tab Status in Mutter: New Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Impact == Using Alt-Tab to leave a fullscreen game and then return breaks the game by offsetting the display by the size of the GNOME Shell top bar (and the Ubuntu Dock if running).

I think this bug might have already been fixed before Ubuntu 20.04 was released.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1732245] Re: Fullscreen game windows vertically offset after returning from Alt-Tab
Thanks for the quick response! Another detail I want to add is that it only happens after invoking the switcher. I can control volume or screen brightness all good without any problems but as soon as I switch windows and go back to my game the top bar keeps appearing whenever the volume or screen brightness controls are accessed. The switcher is definitely the culprit here. It happens on X, it happens on Wayland. On X, the bar usually disappears as soon as the switching animation stops or volume and screen brightness control pop-ups fade away. On Wayland, the bug persists until I re-open the affected window through Activities, not the Switcher.

Hey, Daniel! You sent me here from #1890281 #1725649 is said to be fixed but the bug is still present on Ubuntu 18.04.4 running X. I've recently upgraded to Bionic and noticed this bug immediately as I often play games. Shall I file a new bug report?
