I have Kububtu 18.04 and suddenly I found distortion in tooltips, for example, the quick launcher [ALT + Space] looks like below:
Also tooltips in other applications such as Firefox, Vivaldi looks like below:

I don't know what is up?
Update:
I observed that OpenGL is the issue source. From System Settings > Display and Monitor > Compositor when I change Rendering backend to XRender from OpenGL 3.1 or OpenGL 2.0, the issue is gone away. Hence, now I need to know, how to fix the OpenGL?
glxinfo | grep -i opengl
OpenGL vendor string: X.Org
OpenGL renderer string: AMD TURKS (DRM 2.50.0 / 5.3.0-26-generic, LLVM 9.0.1)
OpenGL core profile version string: 3.3 (Core Profile) Mesa 20.0.0-devel (git-58ba7b6 2020-01-27 bionic-oibaf-ppa)
OpenGL core profile shading language version string: 3.30
OpenGL core profile context flags: (none)
OpenGL core profile profile mask: core profile
OpenGL core profile extensions:
OpenGL version string: 3.1 Mesa 20.0.0-devel (git-58ba7b6 2020-01-27 bionic-oibaf-ppa)
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.40
OpenGL context flags: (none)
OpenGL extensions:
OpenGL ES profile version string: OpenGL ES 3.1 Mesa 20.0.0-devel (git-58ba7b6 2020-01-27 bionic-oibaf-ppa)
OpenGL ES profile shading language version string: OpenGL ES GLSL ES 3.10
OpenGL ES profile extensions:
Final Update:
A system update has been occurred today including some mesa
stuff solves the issue. Now I use OpenGL 3.1 in the compositor settings without any problem. For my case, the issue is closed.
