# Wayland Shot
|
|
|
|
`Wayland Shot` is a KDE-first screenshot tool for Wayland sessions on Debian-based Linux.
|
|
|
|
The first serious build targets:
|
|
- fast launch from `Alt+Shift+F12`
|
|
- `region` and `fullscreen` capture modes
|
|
- a lightweight annotation editor with `select`, `arrow`, `line`, `rectangle`, and `text`
|
|
- `copy`, `save`, and `save as`
|
|
|
|
## Why Qt6/C++
|
|
|
|
This machine already ships a full Qt6 runtime and KDE session stack. Qt6 is the shortest path to a native-feeling KDE application with strong D-Bus, clipboard, image editing, and packaging support.
|
|
|
|
## Current State
|
|
|
|
This repository currently contains:
|
|
- the application skeleton
|
|
- a working editor document model
|
|
- an annotation canvas shell
|
|
- export plumbing for clipboard and PNG save
|
|
- a placeholder capture backend until the real KDE/portal capture backend lands
|
|
|
|
## Planned Build Dependencies
|
|
|
|
For the native build we expect these packages:
|
|
- `qt6-base-dev`
|
|
- `qt6-tools-dev`
|
|
- `qt6-tools-dev-tools`
|
|
- `qt6-wayland-dev`
|
|
- `qt6-svg-dev`
|
|
- `qt6-declarative-dev`
|
|
- `libkf6globalaccel-dev` if we link KDE global shortcut support directly
|
|
|
|
## Build
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cmake -S . -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
|
|
cmake --build build
|
|
ctest --test-dir build --output-on-failure
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## v1 Boundary
|
|
|
|
Deliberately cut from the first usable local build:
|
|
- window capture
|
|
- blur and pixelation tools
|
|
- screenshot history/gallery
|
|
- cross-desktop guarantees beyond KDE Wayland
