Description Alexey Rusakov 2007-02-28 01:39:39 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
Not sure whether this bug is really about a window list, but the problem is observed in it. Feel free to move the bug.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Make some window to require your attention (so that it glows in the window list).
2. Hover with the cursor over another window nearby, _so that a tooltip displays over the glowing rectangle_.
3. Click on that other window, so that it gains focus and (more important) the tooltip disappears.

Actual results:
The window that was just glowing, stops once step 3 is accomplished, with some colour from the range of fade in/fade out colours. There is a greyish (in Clearlooks) rectangle in the place where tooltip was. After any changes to the window list, glowing goes on.

Expected results:
Window goes on glowing, with no artifacts on it.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.

Reassigning a few bugs from the panel/windowlist to the libwnck/tasklist.

Nearly fix this

This works when the glowing effect has stopped (new feature in trunk), but not when the loop is still active.

Is there a reason this patch is not committed yet?

Because the patch doesn't work in all cases, as I mentioned when I attached it :-)
Comment 5 Alexey Rusakov 2008-11-19 16:02:01 UTC 
Does this patch break anything? It's almost a year since this patch have been applied to libwnck in our (ALT Linux) distribution, and no any user complains :)
Comment 6 Vincent Untz 2008-11-19 16:07:21 UTC 
It probably doesn't break anything, but I'd need to take a close look again...
