Under Wayland the window is semi-transparent, and WM sees it as only 1 pixel

[bestouff]

When running on of the examples (with rustc 1.18.0), the windows are always kind of transparent (see attached screenshot). What's stranger is that the window manager seems to see it as only 1 pixel wide and high (look at the top-left corner of the window, you'll see the window borders are stuck around there) :

Hello, thanks for testing. It seems like glutin issue actually, can you test glutin examples?
UPD: What window manager are you using?

[bestouff]

Indeed it seems it's glutin related (I'm running a standard GNOME on Wayland):

[xav@pcxav:~/git/glutin]$ cargo run --example window 
    Finished dev [unoptimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 0.0 secs
     Running `target/debug/examples/window`
Pixel format of the window's GL context: PixelFormat { hardware_accelerated: true, color_bits: 24, alpha_bits: 8, depth_bits: 24, stencil_bits: 8, stereoscopy: false, double_buffer: true, multisampling: None, srgb: false }
OpenGL version 3.3 (Core Profile) Mesa 13.0.6
WindowEvent { window_id: WindowId(Wayland(WindowId(140706616329072))), event: Resized(1, 1) }
WindowEvent { window_id: WindowId(Wayland(WindowId(140706616329072))), event: Focused(true) }
WindowEvent { window_id: WindowId(Wayland(WindowId(140706616329072))), event: Resized(1, 1) }

I'll open a glutin bug.

I think it's already there: rust-windowing/glutin#889 (at least for the pixel-size problem, not the transparency problem).

@bestouff there is another winit issue: rust-windowing/winit#163

[bestouff]

Yes it's referenced in the first one. I guess I'll have to wait a bit before playing with three ...

[vitvakatu]

Sad to hear that :(
I'm leaving this issue open, ping me if you find a solution that requires changes inside three

[kvark]

@bestouff the obvious workaround would be to run it through Xorg instead of Wayland

I guess I'll have to wait a bit before playing with three ...

Most of the projects use winit/glutin for windowing. I suppose you can try ggez for it's using SDL.

@kvark Yep I have rebooted (sometimes you have to:)) just to try under Xorg and it works fine.
