Bug Description
Binary package hint: compiz
I've been noticing this for a while, already:
If you put a window on top of another one causing the former top window to perform a dodge, the contents will get blurry, as soon as you bring it to the top again. The interesting thing is that the contents that were hidden underneath the top windo don't get blurred. This is probably a little difficult to understand, so I'm gonna attach a screenshot.
What I did was put Opera on top of Amarok, then selecting Amarok which made Opera move aside. As soon as I focus on Opera again, the stuff that wasn't covered by the Amarok window gets blurry.
This glitch will only happen if the dodge effect is enabled for focusing windows. Of course it happens with all different types of applications, not just Qt apps. And it doesn't just affect text - it's just most obvious there.
