debug option for subregion color coding according to encodings, quality, speed, etc? #760

Debugging issues, especially on annoyingly complicated applications like web browsers, is often complicated by the effort to try to discern what the problematic pieces are doing, before a narrowing of debug options is possible.

Would it be possible to add flags to color code the pieces in some way? Maybe something like --png=yellow, --h264=blue, or --quality-output=yes to have some sort of color boxing of subregions and maybe a rolling output of the numerical quality setting... or something like that?

Did you test all platforms? (win32, osx and Linux)

Can I close this ticket?

[[BR]]

I can't seem to change the border size with border=4 v. border=43 either server or client side (or both). [[BR]] The border command line switch only affects window borders, which is not a debugging feature. If this doesn't work, please file a new ticket for that (works fine here on the platforms I tested - you just need to use the correct syntax).

r10450 changes the meaning of the XPRA_OPENGL_PAINT_BOX env switch, it now specifies the line width, so 0 keeps it disabled as before (and is the default). ie: XPRA_OPENGL_PAINT_BOX=10 xpra ...

Tested with OSX, windows (working in trunk) and fedora.

I'll close this myself.

Note: as of r12054 you can toggle the paint box at runtime using Meta+Shift+F12.
