Bug Description

After activating Effects -> Animations -> Focus Animation -> any effect except none in CCSM, every windows being moved to the background turns white.

The unfocused white window fix in vanvugt/compiz-preproposed repository (bug #1002602) didn't work on this one.

Happens on Ubuntu 12.04 64bit, nvidia 295.49.

Given your positive feedback in bug 1002602, I'm going to assume that last night's build of ppa:vanvugt/compiz-preproposed (compiz 1:0.9.7.8-0ubuntu1vvpreproposed2) fixed the problem...

Thanks for your interest in the matter!

Sadly, no, I actually filed this bug report *after* I commented on bug #1002602. I hoped those bugs are related, but it seems they are not.

Window flashing upon cube rotate: fixed.
White windows upon focus change with window decoration activated: fixed.

White windows upon *animated* focus change: not fixed.

I'm sorry for the bad news. It's actually no big deal (I'm so glad the flashing is gone), but it still would be nice to have the animated dodge window effect back.

If you need further information on the matter, I'd gladly be of help.
