Bug Description

The spinner animation in the panel (when an app is launching) has hiccups and jumps periodically.

You'll need to launch a big/slow app to see the issue though. Seems to happen with Firefox for me.

Ubuntu 22.04 development branch @ 17/03/2022

When launching firefox snap, and keep the mouse cursor over the dock or top panel
the spinner animation takes 5sec loading, but i dont see hiccups, feels rather stable on my side

Maybe it's specific to high-DPI? I'm using scale 200%

I can confirm the problem on my 22.04 VM.
I've got a 1080p screen and I don't use scaling.

But is the problem also present using the default GS theme + Yaru icons or Yaru GS theme + Adwaita icons or both default theme and icons?

The problem is that my VM crashed and I can't start it, so I can't test this at once.
I'm downloading the latest ISO, but it would be nice if anyone could test this.

I found the problem: one image of the animation is misaligned.

I made a patch: https://github.com/ubuntu/yaru/pull/3519
