If If Start an application or Open an window from an programm its content is sometimes only an part of the background of the application or Desktop image.
I tried with several Desktop enviroments on bodhi Linux, (Moksha), KDE, lxqt, lxde, cinnamon, Pantheon, xfce, Ubuntu unity, ans openbox. The issue is appearing in all enviroments.
Does someome knows about this Problem or have an Idea?

This occasionally happens on a fresh install. There is a reason I have been told a number of times by the devs, but I forget. A solution, however, is to use the alt+Left click and move keybinding you can use anywhere on the window to move it. This should then be remembered next time the application opens. There is also a window remembers option in settings if the change doesn’t stick automatically. Hope this helps.
This is a moksha fix. I don’t know enough about the other DEs to help with those, but I assume there is something similar for those too, however I don’t know the details to share.

I'm not sure I understand your problem at all. I feel like you're saying you have some kinda graphics bug, and you mention lots of desktops you tried under bodhi that all exhibit this problem, so I suspect its related to kernel or video driver. You've tried so many desktops, I'm wondering if you've tried another distro (live boot is fine), does it have same problem? For that matter, does bodhi exhibit this in live environment before install?
I believe Hippytaff thinks your problem is that when you open a window, half of it is off the screen, and you just need to move it back. He is saying there is a keybinding (special key combination) for Alt+LeftMouseClick that is one way to move windows in Moksha. Normally with moksha you have to hold left click on the the title bar to move a window, but if you hold down Alt while doing so, you can click anywhere in the window (not just titlebar). This is especially useful if the window is positioned with the title bar off the screen (or windows not using moksha title bars, like some gnome apps and chrome/chromium with certain settings, or any app you set borderless yourself of course).

Can you take a screenshot of the result of inxi -G
It'll look like this and show us gpu/driver details... perhaps a hint there... I'm hoping you have nvidia card, cuz then can install nvidia prop drivers as an alternative, see if better.
Another experiment is try enabling compositing and see if the same issue. To do that one way is
sudo apt install picom && picom &
Note that'll install the picom compistor and start it, but only once, if that turns out to be a solution you can add picom to startup applications for next time.

installing picom with apt is not working. I needed to built it myself, description here: dev.to/l04db4l4nc3r/compositors-in-linux-1hhb#picomI needed to install libpcre3-dev and meson to get meson working as described at the website. I have already the nvidia driver installed, it is only working under bodhi linux for me. Picom fixed one bug that appears while draging around windows. But my problem still appears! I installed also compton, and if i open the problematic window it outputs the following in the terminal: [ 7.46 ] error 3 BadWindow request 2 minor 0 serial 13232: "BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)" It seems that the application, Unity3d editor in this case has an bug. I trie an other version an post if this is working. |

The problem isnt the application, the bug appears in multiple programms.
inxi -G:
Graphics:
