[Touch-packages] [Bug 1666902] Re: Enable screencast utilities
One thing that has come up on the related Wayland discussion is the fact, that Peek uses the window positioning to obtain the recording coordinates. This is very different from e.g. the more traditional approach of Now on Wayland there is no such thing as global window coordinates, and I have read somewhere this is also the case on Mir. Is that correct? If so one way to solve this would be to allow the API to define the screenshot / screencast area relative to the window position. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1666902 Title: Enable screencast utilities Status in QtMir: New Status in qtmir package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Peek is a utility to grab screencast to animated GIFs.
