Describe the bug

Original issue
Foot terminal does not have a closing animation. See attached video, I'm re-using the one from the original issue as it has not changed since. This is the only app with this issue, at least for me.

well call me crazy but it works for me. A noteworthy part is that foot turns transparent on close, which would be a foot issue. It likely commits a transparent buffer after being requested to close.

user above doesn't have a window border which makes it more noticeable (same as your video just without the border)
user also claims that this is a regression that started when moving away from wlroots, so something must have changed to make foot "turn transparent on close"

[vaxerski]

just because a change happened in hyprland doesn't mean hyprland is at fault. A similar thing happened with fuzzel recently where we improved hyprland's performance, which revealed a race condition in fuzzel (same dev nota bene as foot) which made it crash.

Try turning off borders, as mentioned it's a lot more noticeable without them, since they do animate correctly unlike the actual window

I realize what the problem is, what I am saying is that it does have an animation, it's just that foot makes itself transparent before closing its window, which would be a foot issue.

Welp, I think this answers it: https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/1959

TLDR; From what I understand, this is "intended" behavior. Foot does commit a transparent buffer before closing.

I'll just use a patch and go on with my life, sorry for wasting time.
