Blurry text on application startup

[helpvisa]

I've noticed that while the extension is enabled, some application windows retain a blurry appearance on startup; mousing over them fixes the issue, as does attempting to trigger a screenshot (the screenshots below are stills from a screen recording, as it was the only way to capture the effect occurring in action), so it's possible that 'refreshing' the window somehow fixes the blur.

Blurry text when application is opened:

Clear text after mousing-over:

This has been happening to me mostly on Xorg, however I've noticed the issue occurring on Wayland as well. I thought perhaps it was related to the shadow blurring effect, though setting the shadow blur to 0px for both focused and unfocused windows seems not to prevent the issue.

In case it's relevant, I'm running GNOME 43.2 with the 525.60.11 Nvidia drivers on Fedora 37 with an RTX3060ti, mixed-resolution multimonitor setup and with all scaling disabled, though disabling one monitor as well as any custom theming seems not to fix the issue.

I've also noticed this with Discord, here's how to reproduce:

1. Minimize Discord (make sure no element inside it is active, for an example, cursor blinking inside a textbox)
2. Click on the taskbar icon / tray to show Discord

Sadly had to disable rounded corners as it's too annoying to deal with this kinda stuff, hopefully they fix.

Same here, can be reproduced with almost all apps:

1. Open an app
2. Minimize the app
3. Re-focus this app

Still happening - no fix yet.

Same issue

Indeed it happens with most apps, Qt apps, GTK apps, Electron apps etc..

This is still happening to me, Discord specifically. Latest extension version, Gnome 43.

@yilozt
Can this be reopened?

It seems to still be an issue on program startup, until you hover it or the window contents update.
I've noticed it in web based programs mostly, but here's Wezterm also experiencing it, so it seems GPU accelerated programs get hit more commonly by this.

[Magnotec1]

Yeah, still happening. @yilozt Can we reopen this?

I'm sorry, this semester is very important for me personally. I won't be able to continue developing this GNOME extension until after this semester ends (around mid-July).

Can confirm I'm also experiencing the issue. Sytem info: Debian 12 (Gnome 43 XOrg) with Nvidia RTX 4060 Ti (driver 535)

The screenshot above is from the gnome-terminal app. The issue was not present in a VM I installed, which makes me believe it has something to do with GPU accelerated rendering.
