Re: QT 4.4 and Domino

Top level windows will still be true X11 windows, so this shouldn't affect knapshot. Alien targets all those widgets that aren't top level windows. At least this is my understanding of it.

With KSnapshot you can also select sub-windows which is very handy. This works much better than manually selecting a rectangle on the screen. I use it to make screenshots of certain dockwidgets when doing documentation.

But as far as I know alien windows can be disabled with an environment variable.

    > manually selecting a rectangle on the screen.

    speaking of which, have you tried ksnapshot's new rectangle selector? you get to resize it before you take a shot!

    i need to improve the obviousness of the "take it now" though. maybe add a push button in the middle of the shot. right now it's too easy to miss the instruction label at the top of the screen.

    but other than that, it's pretty neat.

      Wonderful! Any chance it could provide a Width/Height (even Xoffest/Yoffset could be handy) coords popup while resizing so one could get a consistant set of same-sized snapshots without post editing?

      Did ksnapshot in 4.x fix the artefact bug? Link:
