Bug ID: 465524
Summary: Window title filename template (%T) doesn't work on
wayland
Classification: Applications
Product: Spectacle
Version: unspecified
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: General
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Spectacle's `ExportManager` class needs to get a window title from its
`Platform` abstract class via a connection to the
`Platform::windowTitleChanged(const QString &)` signal in order to generate a
screenshot filename with a window title in it. However, Platform's subclasses
for Wayland don't emit `windowTitleChanged()` since they can't get a window
title for the picked window. Thus, you can't generate a filename with a window
title in it on Wayland.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a wayland kwin/plasma session
2. Open Spectacle
3. Open settings dialog by clicking the "Configure..." button
4. Go to the Save page
5. Set text field with "Filename" label to "%T_%Y%M%D_%H%m%S", Click OK
6. Do a Window Under Cursor screenshot on Firefox's new tab page
7. Click Save
OBSERVED RESULT
Filename is "Spectacle_20230209_175949.png", where the date and time can vary
as they should.
EXPECTED RESULT
Filename should be the title of the Firefox window, plus the date and time,
like "Mozilla Firefox_20230209_175949.png"
