[Spectacle] [Bug 404839] No capture modes work in a GNOME Wayland session
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=404839 --- Comment #17 from Ricky Tigg --- Good self explicit answer which does not allow confusion. I wish the text exhibited at https://github.com/KDE/kwin was of that kind. How not to get confused with such sentences: "Its primary usage is in conjunction with a Desktop Shell (e.g. KDE Plasma Desktop)" "KWin is not... (...) a replacement for window managers designed for use with a specific Desktop Shell (e.g. GNOME Shell)"". In "e.g. KDE Plasma Desktop" that "KDE Plasma Desktop" is dully presented as a specific Desktop Shell; In "specific Desktop Shell", once GNOME Shell is as "e.g." of specific Desktop Shell, it is not supported. It''s where non-sense-sentences lead. That is once thing to produce code, one another to master writing. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=404839 --- Comment #12 from David Edmundson --- There is sort of a common API now. We can port out backend to https://github.com/flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal/blob/master/data/org.freedesktop.portal.Screenshot.xml Then put an implementation for kwin inside our xdg-portal (if it's not there already) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I do however agree with d_ed, even if we end up implementing a backend, who's going to test it regularly and make sure it works? GNOME's API isn't something we control, and this is something they're free to change from underneath us... and completely break everything. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Gnome has a different DBus interface to kwin's wayland - and obviously grabbing the X root window won't work. I don't think there's any point spectacle doing anything until there's some sort of unity between them. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
