Bug ID: 390787
Summary: Using "Capture the current pop-up only" captures wrong
area when compositing is disabled
Product: Spectacle
Version: 17.12.2
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: General
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
Trying to capture a popup like the "Help" menu or the context menu in Kate (2
seconds delay, "Capture the current pop-up only" checked) will:
- show an incorrect area of the screen with compositing off (which this bug
shall be about)
- cause Spectacle to get stuck with compositing on (this is tracked in Bug
374864)
Depending on where the context menu is opened in relation to the parent window
and where the cursor hovers when taking the screenshot, "incorrect area" can
mean:
- null image
- parent window including context menu
- screenshot sized like the menu, but showing parts of the parent window
- screenshot sized like the menu, but showing bottom part of parent window as
well as parts of the desktop and possibly the desktop panel
The problem might be related how "Window under Cursor" includes parent/child
windows of the active application.
