GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 772840
[Wayland] clutter stage subsurface needs clipping on Wayland
Last modified: 2021-06-10 11:33:25 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #771320 +++ The *positioning* of the GtkClutterEmbed widget and clutter stage should be fixed with the patch from bug 771320 in gtk+, so now the widget moves along with teh scroll window, but because it's using a subsurface on Wayland, it's not clipped inside the scroll window/toplevel, so the widget will appear floating around, sometimes outside of the toplevel window. The goal of this bug is to implement clipping for the subsurface as used by clutter under Wayland. One posisbility is to use the viewporter extension, but it's not implemented in mutter yet, so would be good to have a fallback solution as well, for when viewporter is not supported.
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version of clutter, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/clutter/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
