Dear Maintainer,

Run /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-
gnu/qt5/examples/quick/dialogs/systemdialogs/systemdialogs

Drag bottom-right window corner up/down to resize height of window. The window
flickers and redraws with widgets in wrong place. If you go really, really
slowly then this doesn't happen, but drag at a normal speed and it happens.

Tested on both x86 with Radeon and amd64 with Intel graphics (Intel graphics
has TearFree vsync on some this is not the problem)

I can't reproduce this behavior on an Intel card. This normally happens due to
graphic driver's issues, qml tends to find them quite quickly ;)

Do you mind to specify which drivers are you using in each case?

Since it appears on both Radeon and Intel on two completely different
systems, it's probably a bug in QT rather than the actual graphics drivers.

I posted screenshots taken during the window resize, the corruption of the
window before repaint is visible: http://imgur.com/a/5AP01

It happens on both XFCE and Gnome, x86-32 and x86-64.

xserver-xorg-video-radeon-7.5.0
xf86-video-intel-2.99.917

But I do not think this is a specific driver problem, it could be a general
problem with Xorg.
