Support for Wayland #27

Closed hluk closed 2 years ago

hluk commented 11 years ago

Basically Wayland is the new X11 ~~and Weston is its window manager~~.

Since Qt 5 supports Wayland it should be possible to implement some basic functionality for it src/platform/wayland and test it on Weston.

Priority list:

~Fix restoring window position on multiple screens~
Implement global shortcuts

Update 2021-04-11:

CopyQ 4.0.0 now supports monitoring clipboard and restoring window size (tested on Sway).
Support for pasting and other features, use Wayland Support commands (here is how to add the command to CopyQ).

the shortcut works after I added an empty shortcut in system settings under KDE NEON wayland desktop.

Same on:

Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.1 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0 Qt Version: 6.6.2 Kernel Version: 6.7.9-arch1-1 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland

But it uses the last window position and size...no under mouse cursor.

I have also tried copyq triggerGlobalShortcut "Show main window under mouse cursor" after install Wayland Support script without luck.

AFAIK, Wayland does not support setting custom window position.

I disable wayland in my ubuntu 24.10 with comment above.

This comment works fine:

file .config/autostart/copyq.desktop

Exec=env QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb /usr/bin/copyq

Ubuntu 24.04

This enables copyq startup, but it still only works on X windows then, right?

guettli commented 2 days ago

@iago-lito Exec=env QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb /usr/bin/copyq this works for Wayland.

But today I switched to X again, because ActivityWatch does not work under Wayland.

iago-lito commented 2 days ago

I mean, it does launch on wayland, but it only works within windows that still use the X protocol (XWayland or something). Pure wayland windows don't seem to work. (= it works on windows within which xeyes does track your cursor, not for other windows)
