Manjaro Linux, Find image -> Capture screen part, not working
I tried opening actiona in terminal to see if some error will popup but nothing, when i click on "capture screen part" i am unable to select anything on screen, sometimes it randomly gets to work 1 try out of 15, Capture whole screen and capture window works normally, what could be causing this issue?
Are you using Wayland as a display manager? Actiona only works on X11.
I'm indeed on X11, not using Walyand
the only errors that are showing in terminal after starting Actiona are these:
qt.accessibility.core: Cannot create accessible child interface for object: QMenuBar(0x55d471b9d4d0, name = "menubar") index: 1
qt.accessibility.core: Cannot create accessible child interface for object: QMenuBar(0x55d471b9d4d0, name = "menubar") index: 1
Invalid type of WM_NAME property.
UPDATE: just tested in fresh Manjaro install inside VM, i dont get any of these console errors there, but it still doesnt work
Hm okay, looks like this could be a bug. Thanks. I'll have a look when I get the time.
I was able to reproduce the issue on Manjaro also. The "part of screen" capture is a bit hacky to be honest, so I'm not that surprised that it got broken for some reason. I don't see any immediate workaround apart from doing a screenshot with another app and editing the screenshot to keep the part you want. You can then select that image as the image to search for on the screen.
I see... The thing is, it does sometimes work if i click and hold both mouse clicks or randomly clicking and dragging with both of mouse buttons pressed or such random combinations, and it successfully captures the part of screen i want, so could it maybe be something about registering mouse inputs incorrectly?
The bug has been fixed, and the fix will be included in the next version.
