Graphical glitches and transparent VM when properties is shown
What happened
- Installed the latest GNOME Boxes from flathub (3.32.0-2af6543a in the about dialog)
- Launched a virtual machine
- I noticed when gdm first appeared and when i first logged into gnome-shell i got some strange almost reversed colours for a short period of time
- When at the desktop of the VM, I pressed the burger menu of GNOME Boxes and selected properties (this brought up the properties of the running VM)
- I then noticed that the view that was showing the virtual machine became transparent and I could see instead what is behind the VM
What I expected to happen
At step 3 for there not to be odd reversed colours/flickers and at step 5 for the virtual machine's view to remain visible.
