Steps to reproduce:

codepen: https://codepen.io/cryptodescriptor/full/QWLrKMx
github: https://cryptodescriptor.github.io/survey-form/

github repository: https://github.com/cryptodescriptor/survey-form

Frosted Panel (this controls the SVG inside the panel): https://cryptodescriptor.github.io/frosted-panel/

When using Firefox 71.0 the SVG inside the panel div flickers when the page is loaded, when the page is scrolled, and also sometimes when the browser is resized. Interestingly it seems to be reset when the select dropdown transition is triggered when hovered over.

This was working flawlessly a few build ago. I'm not exactly sure which version, but it seems to be very recently when it stopped working. I read that firefox made changes to their rendering engine in a recent update, do you think this might be the cause?

Actual results:

If you think this used to work regently, could you use moz-regression to determine exactly when things changed please?

Bugbug thinks this bug should belong to this component, but please revert this change in case of error.

I used regression on both Windows 10 and Ubuntu VM's, and I ultimately was unable to reproduce the flickering issue. But when I tested using regression on my host machine running Windows 10 I seem to have pinpointed the bad builds:

Bug 1568227. Change to using the visual rect for the blob bounds. r=nical

This also makes sure that we invalidate for any visible rect bounds changes.
This makes more sense even if it's more conservative.

Filters can overflow the element bounds perhaps webrender is not accounting for that properly.

I can reproduce this on Linux and Mac with webrender enabled too (only when resizing, not when scrolling for me). Jeff, any thoughts on why that change might have caused this?

Alexis, can you look you add this bug to your list?

Any update on this?

I noticed it only happens when scrolling if my mouse is hovering over the div. Another thing I also noticed, is that when the bug occurs I can fix it temporarily by hovering over any element in inspect element.

Hey Nical - can you take a look? Seems like it can be repro-ed when clicking through the form fields and dropdown

Hi,

Thanks for the details. I was able to reproduce on windows 10 pro on the following versions

Firefox Nightly version 78.0a1 (2020-05-06) (64-bit)
Beta 77.0b2 (64-bit)
Release 76.0 (64-bit)

I am updating flags accordingly.

Thanks for the report.

Best regards, Clara.

I was able to reproduce this a couple of weeks ago but not anymore. It appears that we aren't rendering blobs in this testcase anymore so it might be that recent SVG filter improvements put this off the blob fallback path.

Appears fixed in the nightly build as Nicolas Silva mentioned.

Hi,

I've tested this using the following versions: (for windows 10 pro)

Release 76.0 (64-bit) (bug still happens)
Beta 77.0b8 (64-bit) (I cannot reproduce anymore)
Firefox Nightly 78.0a1 (2020-05-21) (64-bit) (I cannot reproduce anymore)

Best,
Clara

Unfortunately I've disabled the code in bug 1555356 as part of bug 1684625

Hey, is this broken again? https://cryptodescriptor.github.io/survey-form/

Can you still reproduce this bug with the latest Nightly?

Redirect a needinfo that is pending on an inactive user to the triage owner.
:gw, since the bug has recent activity, could you have a look please?

For more information, please visit auto_nag documentation.

Cant repro anymore.
