Bug Description

Binary package hint: compiz

If burn decoration is set to the close action of drop down menus, often the dropdowns will be invisible until moused over.

Probably caused by the act of trying to redraw the dropdown before the burn effect can finish.
A proposal of mine is to cancel the burn effect if the window is called to be drawn again before the burn duration is over.

Attached screenshot (recorded with mobile phone, couldnt activate screen shot while dropdowns are open).

Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat 64bit
Compiz 1:0.8.6-0ubuntu9.1
intel core vPro i5
Nvidia NVS 5100M
HP Elitebook 8540p
