@aacid Yeah System Settings app is taking too long to send a post-rotation frame. So shell uses the pre-rotation frame and stretches it.

The immediate fix is to figure out why it takes System Settings so long to submit a new frame - is it blocking for some reason?

Shell can take an action item to try be more forgiving of apps which submit post-rotation frames slowly. Most obvious idea being to only do the rotation animation once shell has received the post-rotation frame from the app. This idea will have its own issues to solve however, mostly in dealing with case of a frozen app.
