    Description

      Bug reproduction:

      1. Create a new Qt Widgets project with a default QWidget or QMainWindow.

      2. Write following codes to add the fade-in effect on that default Widget:

       

      void
      MainWindow::show()
      {
          QPropertyAnimation *fadeInAnimation = new QPropertyAnimation(this, "windowOpacity");
          fadeInAnimation->setDuration(2000);
          fadeInAnimation->setStartValue(0);
          fadeInAnimation->setEndValue(1);
          fadeInAnimation->start(QAbstractAnimation::DeleteWhenStopped);
          QWidget::show();
      }
      

      3. Compile and run.

       

      I tested the same code in Microsoft Windows 10 with Qt MinGW 8.1.0 and it worked like a charm.

      However, in Linux, the problem is that the fading animation will show properly only when I keep moving mouse cursor inside the window. Otherwise, the animation will be omitted. it will just wait for 2 seconds before showing up a totally opaque window directly.

      I tested with Qt 6.2.0 Alpha and Qt 5.15.2 and this problem occurs in both of the versions.
