works fine on my machine with wayland. how do you take a screenshot and can you record screen with obs when not running overview effect?

Comment 2 saxn 2022-02-09 12:49:42 UTC

I mean the overview effect itself.

I can record my desktop and all the things, but the new overview effect is not shown in the recording.

I can take screenshot from Overview by Spectacle(By using delay) but can't recording Overview by OBS-Studio(Just Overview not recording at all)

capture entire desktop (Shift + Print) should also able to capture the overview effect.

Comment 7 Patrick Silva 2022-10-29 14:49:54 UTC

I can record Overview effect with OBS 28.0.3 and shift+print takes a screenshot on neon unstable.
