I’d like to hear from others running compiz on 18.04. Have you seen what I’ve seen? I’ve already done some quick guessing what modules may be involved.
I run compiz primarily for Enhanced Zoom Desktop but enable the cube. I turn off Animations, Fading Windows and Grid and run pretty much MATE Traditional panels.

VLC mouse-over the play slider and weird things happen with focus and Window List. It should pop up time location.

Changing panels in MATE-Tweak is flakey. Back-and-forth seems to help stabilize things like it caches but often causes double entries. I find it best to first setup in Marco or panels are loaded incomplete. I also found CLI: mate-tweak --layout (name-of-layout file) behaves better than the MATE-Tweak GUI.
