Certain types of dialogs are jumping around erratically when dragged
Last modified: 2021-07-05 13:47:08 UTC
In Fedora 23 with mutter-3.18.1-4.fc23.x86_64 and google-chrome-stable-46.0.2490.86-1.x86_64, when you have Hangouts plugin enabled, it has its own window (it's still shown as Google Chrome window) and moving that window causes it to jump rapidly. See this video: https://youtu.be/LW1mUu8SzPc How to reproduce: ----------------- 1. Install Google Chrome 2. Install hangouts extension https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/google-hangouts/nckgahadagoaajjgafhacjanaoiihapd?hl=cs 3. Open Hangouts in Chrome 4. Try to move Hangouts window
I see the same problem with LibreOffice Calc color picker dialog (when you want to set a background color for a cell), in GTK2 version. When it it dragged, it also jumps around erratically. mutter-3.18.2-1.fc23.x86_64 gnome-shell-3.18.3-1.fc23.x86_64 libreoffice-calc-5.0.3.2-11.fc23.x86_64 gtk3-3.18.6-1.fc23.x86_64 gtk2-2.24.28-2.fc23.x86_64
When I try the gtk3 version of libreoffice, the problem is gone. So this seems to either be related to gtk2, or xwayland.
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
