The screenshot beep on logout is "tied" to xfsm_logout_dialog_screenshot_new(), which in turn is only called when /general/ShowScreenshots is set. If you tick the box that says "Save session for future logins", your current session will be saved in ~/.cache/sessions. The list of all saved session can be accessed in the Session and Startup dialog, under Saved Sessions tab. The ShowScreenshots property controls whether or not to display thumbnails. If set, each time you open the logout dialog but before it actually pops, a screenshot of your desktop is taken. If unset, no screenshot is taken and no beep is emitted either. > So, if there is code for that, are you saying that it is misused in this > application? I'm saying that it is a feature and not a bug. You can easily turn it off, albeit not directly: xfconf-query --channel xfce4-session --create --property /general/ShowScreenshots --type bool --set false After that, in place of thumbnails, the Xfce logo with a mouse in it will be shown.
