Version

Short overview

When I try to take a screenshot, the image saved on the system is all transparent. I have tried all my options already, opening an issue was my last. I'm not sure if this is related to: https://github.com/nut-tree/libnut/pull/34

Issue occurs on

  • [ ] Virtual machine
  • [ ] Docker container
  • [X] Dev/Host system

Steps to reproduce error

await screen.capture('whatever', FileType.PNG)

Same here. Regardless of the method used (screen.grabRegion(), screen.captureRegion()) - image is always empty. Same code on Win10 works correctly.

Manjaro linux

Hi @Linkaynn @maks-rafalko 👋

Are you running Wayland or the XWayland compatibility mode?

Hi @s1hofmann ! Thanks for the reply

I used the Wayland option on Ubuntu login screen 🤔

Could you please try using the XWayland option? Wayland support is still lacking
