When running an electron application with version: 35.2.0

OS: Linux 13FG1T3 6.14.3-arch1-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Sun, 20 Apr 2025 12:38:52 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux

GNOME version: 48 on Wayland

Running electron full screen, there is a 25 (I think) pixel border around the window instead of it filling up the whole screen. This is a screenshot:

You can see the transparent border around the Electron window. But this does not render as such on the screen. Here are some photo's from the screen:

The top left border:

The bottom left border:

In both cases you can see the corruption in the 25px border around the window. This changes depending on what was behind the window when it is opened. In this case you see remnants of the Electron window itself, but when I open a browser behind the Electron window, you will see bits of the browser.

The problem is not there when using Adwaita
