paint_preprocess calls redir_start if it decides to redirect the screen. redir_start might change the state of the windows. For example, when the image of the window fails to bind, redir_start sets the error flag. And those state changes might exclude the window from being rendered. Thus, paint_preprocess should be re-run to make sure the new states are honoured. Fixes a crash when window images fail to bind after redirecting. Signed-off-by: Yuxuan Shui <yshuiv7@gmail.com>
Compton
This is a development branch, bug to be expected
This is forked from the original Compton because that seems to have become unmaintained.
The current battle plan of this fork is to refactor it to make the code possible to maintain, so potential contributors won't be scared away when they take a look at the code.
We also try to fix bugs.
