Does not capture window in window mode. #199

Closed capsicumw closed 2 years ago

capsicumw commented 2 years ago

Set to record "window" vokoscreen-NG only records in its own window, it will not record any other window that I select. Desktop window focus is set to manual click. The blue+ disappears when moved over terminal windows. First attempts used mouse only, then attempted focusing on a target window first and using hot key ctl-shift-f10. But with all combinations voko still only records its own window. Voko settings delay 3 seconds, 3 second countdown, no magnification, 30 frames per second, no time limit, no audio, no mouse. Area mode records correctly but can not be moved to second screen. Debian bullseye, vokoscreen-NG 3.0.7-1, latest from Debian stable repository, Xfce4.16

[vokoscreenNG] Desktop session is a X11 session

capsicumw commented 2 years ago

I found a desktop environment setting that fixes the problem in "Window manager tweaks". Selecting "activate focus stealing prevention" allows Vokoscreen-ng window mode to capture as expected. So maybe not a bug but useful information for user help.

This is all fixed in the last three bugfix-releases. You can test it with the current beta. https://linuxecke.volkoh.de/vokoscreen/vokoscreen-download.html
