Xfwm4 composit is causing visual errors in gtk3

There is a gtk3 theme i made that combined with xfwm4 causes some sort of visual errors while using it. Menubar menu occassionally blends in the bg color while a background image is defined. This error does not occur in ubuntu mate, or xfwm4+compton(disabled composit in xfwm4).

I suppose the problem is a certain feature called composit in xfwm4.
Using compton is a workaround but why does xfwm4 interfere with gtk3.

What version of Xfce are you using? 4.14 uses gtk3 and 4.12 is gtk2.
