Status
------

This change has been marked as submitted.


Review request for kde-workspace and Plasma.


Bugs: 317066
    http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=317066


Repository: kde-workspace


Description
-------

It is a proposed fix for bug 317066. The fix is a very simple one-liner setting \
FullViewportUpdate mode for FdoGraphicsWidget. I'm aware FullViewportUpdate has \
negative performance impact but I also know it efficiently leaves out any graphical \
glitches happening due to no repaint of widget when necessary (which is what the bug \
is about). I have tested my solution for a couple of days: the bug no longer \
reproduced and I also didn't see any noticeable performance problems. I'm still not \
sure what I propose is acceptable since it may seem like a hack to more experienced \
developers, however I just didn't want my patch attempt to get lost and forgotten in \
the bugzilla. Please have a look and decide whether the patch is good enough to be \
applied to the next bugfixing release of KDE 4.x series, thank you. 


Diffs

Diff: https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/114910/diff/


Testing
-------

I rebuilt plasma_applet_systemtray.so with the patch and replaced the package version \
with it (I'm on Linux Mint 16 KDE, x86_64, KDE 4.11.3). So far I can no longer \
reproduce bug 317066 and I don't see any noticeable performance problems of system \
tray applet. 


Thanks,

Dmitry Ivanov
