GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 490779
include mouse pointer in screenshots
Last modified: 2007-11-13 11:32:05 UTC
Using the XFixes extension, it is possible to get the cursor image. I will attach a patch that adds this functionality to the screenshot plug-in.
Created attachment 97965 [details] [review] optionally create a layer with the cursor image
I have now committed this to trunk: 2007-10-31 Sven Neumann <sven@gimp.org> * configure.in: check for the XFIXES extension. * plug-ins/common/plugin-defs.pl * plug-ins/common/Makefile.am: use XFIXES_CFLAGS for compiling the screenshot plug-in. * plug-ins/common/screenshot.c: optionally add the mouse cursor image on an extra layer. Work in progress... (bug #490779). This needs some more work. The cursor image should be taken together with the screen-shot, there's a FIXME for that in the source code. Also we should review the UI for this. Currently the mouse cursor feature can only be used when creating a full-screen screen-shot. We may want to change that.
Closing as FIXED for now. If changes are still needed, we can of course do them.
