Fading flags causes desktop to dissappear

[MalcolmReed-ent]

Environment:

• Distro: Debian Sid
• Dependencies Installed:
  • dwm-6.4
  • Fastcompmgr-0.3
  • xserver-xorg/unstable,now 1:7.7+23 amd64 [installed,automatic]
• Compiler: gcc (Debian 13.3.0-1) 13.3.0

Whats Happening:
When i run fastcompmgr with the flags in the README.md "fastcompmgr -o 0.4 -r 12 -c -C" it works perfectly fine, but when i try to use fading, it causes DWM to become unresponsive, i cannot use any of the keybindings and the only way to fix it is to go to another virtual console by "CTRL & ALT & F2" and "pkill fastcompmgr"

The video down below shows me running fastcomp and the entire WM goes unresponsive, i was wondering whether thats a bug or a nonexistent feature

Error:
Command:
"fastcompmgr -I 0.028 -O 0.03 -F -f"

Flags:
-I fade-in-step
Opacity change between steps while fading in. (default 0.028)
-O fade-out-step
Opacity change between steps while fading out. (default 0.03)
-f
Fade windows in/out when opening/closing.
-F
Fade windows during opacity changes.

Cheers and thanks for the effort in reporting this bug. However, in the README it currently states:

On the downside, fading is currently broken

Sorry for that, but fixing fading is an effort that I cannot spend right now.

Mhm, maybe I should remove the flags meanwhile ...
