Simple Qt screenshot GUI for Wayland.
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX
has to be set to /usr
on most operating systems.
Using sudo make install
is discouraged, use the system package manager
instead where possible.
cmake -B build -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -W no-dev
cmake --build build --verbose
DESTDIR="$(pwd)/package" cmake --install build
By default screenshots are saved to ~/tmp/screenshot_*
, edit FILEDIR=
in wshot
to change.
If no custom filename is set it defaults to screenshot_$(date +%F_%H.%M.%S)
e.g. screenshot_2023-08-07_11.37.18
.
Note
"Selected window" mode is working only in sway, hyprland (floating windows only) and wayfire at the moment.
Using zenity checkboxes are not supported and replaced by combos.
Only wlroots-based compositor are supported.
Translations can be added in weblate platform.
