Feature Request - View Arbitrary Windows

Open ghost opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

This may be a little complicated, but would clear up certain things and make it easier to handle extra things. For example, if you want a chat with emotes such as in #6, you could simply grab the window for twitch chat, and similar for #3. You could probably steal from OBS studio to some degree for window capturing?

If this is totally out of scope, that's fine though - I've just been craving something with this feature on Linux, even without being able to interact with the actual windows.

This is indeed a bit complicated to do, but eventually this will be something I want to include. There's a lot of good use cases for this.

I implemented it here (only linux-x11): https://github.com/mittorn/ovr-utils-dashboard https://github.com/mittorn/godot-screengrab It uses XComposite for window capture and sends events with XSendEvent, do not needing to bring windows to front to control it

Still is planned, but haven't had any time to work on this yet
