Hi,
I just tried running a program I'm developing on X11 (and also tested on
Windows) in a KDE Wayland session and it is quite broken in terms of
screens and windows management. I won't go into the details, but i need
to control several windows, place them on the appropriate screen (i.e.
primary or not) and move them around and stack them in a certain order.
Detecting and updating the various windows' position is broken,
detecting the primary screen does not work, dragging a frameless window
containing a DragHandler does not work. Etc. etc.
Before I waste more time trying workarounds (which don't work, until
now), could someone enlighten me as to the state of Qt on Wayland
regarding these kinds of issues? I know it is not yet on par with what
X11 offers, and will never be exactly the same, but is it realistic to
imagine developing such an application on Wayland or just I just forget
it for now?
Thanks very much for any info on the subject,
Lencho
