Since the last changes in master (support for the new lock protocol) everytime I hit the first key to enter my password, the ring jumps to the right a bit then comes back to its initial position. It does not cause any troubles other than looking weird.

This is my conf:

~❯ cat .config/swaylock/config 
daemonize
ignore-empty-password
indicator-idle-visible
indicator-radius=80
indicator-thickness=5

scaling=fill

Mine is not only on first key. It flickers on pretty much any input. The right half of the ring sometimes stays visible offset to the right.

I can attach a screenshot if needed.

This problem was not there a few weeks ago, but I cannot recall properly which version introduced this bug.

The problem seems to be caused by the --indicator-idle-visible option and I believe it is external to swaylock. Try building revision 666ae95, which first added the option (long before this problem appeared). I experience the issue with this version.

@sammko Indeed it is 😶

In my case, removing this option from the swaylock config file has fixed the flickering.

Can confirm, removing indicator-idle-visible solves the issue for me. However, I was fairly sure that when I configured Sway 6 months ago, I did not have the issue. I think it may have been introduced more recently 🤔

Seconded. This worked for quite some time for me and the flickering only started happening about when this issue was created.
