SUMMARY If a notification is on-screen or later appears on-screen and a rectangle select is activated, the notification will overlay without going behind the darkened background. A good way to test is `notify-send test` and then activating a rectangle select. You can also see this by doing `sleep 3; notify-send test`, then activating a rectangle select and then waiting for the notification to appear above the darkened area. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. `notify-send test` 2. Activate rectangle select 3. Notification appears above rectangle area. OBSERVED RESULT Notification appears above the rectangle screenshot area, whether it was there before or after activating the rectangle select. If the rectangle select is activated *before* the notification appears, and then the notification appears over it, then the notification will *not* be included in the screenshot. Taking a screenshot when a notification appears, the screenshot will capture the notification as it was when the rectangle select was activated. That is, say the notification timeout circle around the close button is 1/4 of the way down when the rectangle screenshot is initiated. The region the screenshot is in is selected for a screenshot. And then at the time of capture, once the user presses enter, the overlayed notification timeout circle is 3/4 of the way down. The resulting screenshot will show the notification with 1/4 of its timeout, as it was when the rectangle screenshot was activated. That is all to say, the notification will display over the rectangle select area, but the actual resulting screenshot will correctly capture the "frozen" desktop as it was when the effect is activated. The notification simply appears and is still active when over the selection area when it shouldn't be. EXPECTED RESULT The notification does not stay active or above the rectangle screenshot area.

Git commit 9d4ffdf70e5a29fa9105cbf8c4f7e1ddca9e377a by Noah Davis. Committed on 07/12/2022 at 11:46. Pushed by ndavis into branch 'master'. Port and rework UI for Qt Quick/QML There are still some parts that use Qt Widgets, such as the settings dialog, font dialog, color dialog, print dialog and popup menus. The Qt Quick port is needed for a future patch where screen recording will be added and it also allows more animations to be used. The UI was redesigned, partly because the old UI couldn't be ported nicely to QML and partly to improve the appearance of the UI. There are 2 window classes for the main UIs. CaptureWindow is used for the rectangle capture mode and ViewerWindow is used for the other modes and viewing accepted regions from the rectangle capture mode. Both UIs support adding annotations. Fullscreen Capture UI: The UI is a lot like the old UI, but there are floating toolbars that expose more functionality. - Annotations, saving, copying and taking a new snapshot can be done directly. - Export, Options and Help menus can be accessed directly. - Info box no longer covers or overlaps with selection handles. - Antialiasing for selection handles is fixed. - Each screen now has its own fullscreen window, which fixes some issues on Wayland and X11. Image Viewer UI (appears after a screenshot has been taken): - Main controls are consolidated into a single top toolbar: Save, Save As, Copy, Export (opens popup menu), Show Annotation Tools, Configure (opens settings dialog), Help (opens popup menu) - There is a right sidebar for selecting capture modes and related options that were in the old UI. - The whole UI doesn't completely transform when annotation controls are shown anymore. Instead, a vertical left side toolbar (tools) and a bottom toolbar (tool options) are added and the right sidebar slides away. Undo and Redo are added to the top toolbar. - It should be easier to understand the annotation UI now. - Annotations done in the Fullscreen Capture UI can still be undone/redone in the Image Viewer UI. No screenshot taken UI (appears when configured to start without taking a screenshot): - Has buttons for each capture mode on the left - Has all the other options that were in the Image Viewer UI sidebar and the old UI on the right - Has buttons for opening the settings dialog and showing the help menu below the options. - The heading can be used to drag the window just to make moving the dialog around a bit more convenient. The kImageAnnotator library was replaced by a custom annotation system because kImageAnnotator only worked with Qt Widgets and can't work in the rectangle capture mode since it has its own UI. There is some unused code in this patch that is meant for the upcoming video recording feature.
