Bug Description

When an application is selected in the apps scope and begins to slide in from the right to the left of the screen there is a black area that can be quickly seen to the left of where the application is sliding into.

A small visual flaw but it is something the user would see every time they open an application.

I cannot get a screenshot of this.

Running Pro 5 OTA14 on stable

Indeed, we're hiding the background too hastily.
