Bug ID: 484995
Summary: When taking rectangle screen shot, screen edge
triggers should be blocked
Classification: Applications
Product: Spectacle
Version: 24.02.1
Platform: Exherbo
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: General
Assignee: noaha...@gmail.com
Reporter: li...@bernd-steinhauser.de
CC: k...@david-redondo.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When entering (rectanlge) screenshot mode, I don't think anybody would want to
activate any of these effects, but rather just select the area they want to
capture.
Thus, for the time until the selection was finished, spectacle should tell the
kwin to block these as well as possibly other gesture-activated functions.
(That is, unless on some devices a gesture would be required to exit the
selection mode?)
Note that I wasn't sure whether this classifies as a bug or a wishlist item.
Personally I see it as the former, since in my opinion currently something is
happening that really shouldn't be happening, but I could see why one would
consider it just as a wish.
I also wasn't sure if this should be assigned to spectacle or some plasma
component.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Systemsettings -> Mouse & Touchpad -> Screen Edges -> Setup some action
there, e.g. "Overview"
2. Start spectacle's rectangle selection via hotkeys
3. Move the cursor towards the screen edge as configured previously
OBSERVED RESULT
The selected effect executes.
EXPECTED RESULT
Desktop should ignore screen edge and stay in selection mode.
