Now that you said that, I tried to reproduce the issue on X11 using different ways. If I open up konsole from "sleep 3 && konsole" like I did in the reproduction example, you do have konsole popping up above Spectacle. > Just minimize Konsole if you launch it second or don't launch it second > unless you actually want to use it. It was just a simple reproduction example. Of course I don't launch apps using delays in my daily workflow. The real case what I've been dealing with is trying to catch another wayland bug 489403. When I open up thunderbird and hit "shift + print screen", it always pops up above Spectacle. Like, with 100% reproduction rate. And on X11 I never had this. And while I was writing this comment, I tried to reproduce this again (on X11) and I still get thunderbird launching under spectacle. > because it would make it harder to switch to other windows, creating the 1st > issue I mentioned to a less severe degree. Can't say for everyone of course, but for me personally there were no situations where I'd want to switch somewhere before I finish making screenshot. As a workaround, there could be a button that minimizes overlay but even that would be overkill I think. But I am not saying that this argument is bad. It's just not what I'd think anyone needs. > You don't create a layershell object, you enable layershell for a window I am not well versed in wayland object naming, but I glad that you understood what I mean in spite of me using incorrect semantics. > I'm not sure if it could distinguish between the GUI thread being actually > frozen and the GUI being visually and interactively non-responsive. I don't think that it matters from the user perspective tbh. You want GUI to be responsive. When it isn't, you'd likely want to kill unresponsive app anyway. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
