(macOS) "Ghost content" with non-native fullscreen

[qwerasd205]

Running on macOS Sequoia, with the following config:

background-opacity = 0
macos-non-native-fullscreen = visible-menu
fullscreen = true
window-save-state = always

If I have some information displayed on screen, switch to another space, come back, then clear my screen I get some ghost display from the previous data. I need to exit full screen mode to remove the ghost writing or switch space again. It happens in every split. See attached

Note

Looking closely it seems the compositor is applying some sort of drop shadow effect to the contents with non-native-fullscreen set like that, and it's only updating when switching spaces.

Idk off the top of my head what the correct solution is here - probably some way to signal to the compositor that the contents have changed in a way that the shadow needs to be recomputed - but it's well scoped enough to be turned in to an issue at this point.

Setting macos-window-shadow = false will make this issue go away completely, per my test. See https://ghostty.org/docs/config/reference#macos-window-shadow .

That's a useful hint- we should disable the shadow while non native fullscreen is active, which should fix this.
