So, This > should be worked out. This is how I use it. I have two monitors, always using one as a workspace and the other to magnify it. I do that in Window$ (I hate to admit, the best version out there for projected/full screen zooming, as it the only one actively supporting zoom-follow-typing in both applications and browser text boxes, that's another story.) and Wayland versions of Gnome and Cinnamon (both supports projecting zoom to a half on the screen which translate in my dual monitor setup to one of my screens) and that's it. nothing else supports projected zoom but KMag that we in threat of losing it after Wayland dominates. all other applications of zooming are full screen that doesn't even support zooming-follows-typing which -if combined with me not able to view original viewport beside zoomed one- renders it almost useless. To put all that in straight-forward language: - Wayland doesn't -and doesn't want- to support KMag, the best stand-alone projected zoom out there. - Wayland only supports full screem zooming which is not suitable for practical and professional use. - the only two forms of projected zooming in Wayland are not stand-alone apps, but either features in Gnome and Cinnamon. Conclusion: The only usable desktops within Wayland-sphere for my use case and many other disabled computer users like myself are only Gnome and Cinnamon. that's leaves out KWin/KDE Plasma and all other window managers that doesn't supports projected zooming. all that forces us to either stick to Gnome and Cinnamon in Wayland or to just stay in the sinking ship of XOrg/X11. No other choices out there. I'll leave the status as is as it not evem my decision to take. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
