Ah yes, the most important app. Definitely deserves a top 5 spot in the menu!
- oblio 6y agoThat's what you get when the people configuring the thing are people who will never use it :-). (in this case the right click menu)
- messe 6y agoThe only use I've ever had for XEyes is, ironically, under Wayland. I use it to see quickly which apps are running natively as Wayland apps, and which are using XWayland. The eyes don't follow the mouse when you hover over a native Wayland app, but they do for XWayland apps.
- hibbelig 6y agoThere is a configuration option for Sway that will put information into the title bar to tell you if the window is XWayland or pure Wayland. But I forgot the exact option. It was mentioned in the Sway documentation.
- messe 6y agoIt's actually been a while since I've used Wayland, but that's good to know. My current mix of OSes is OpenBSD (cwm on X11) for coding, iPadOS for casual consumption and note-taking, FreeBSD on a home server, macOS for work, and Windows/Nintendo Switch for gaming.
