Bug ID: 456957
Summary: Allow to choose active screen as a source in screen
share dialog
Product: xdg-desktop-portal-kde
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]

Target Milestone: ---
In Simple Screen Recorder (x11 screencast application) there is a nice feature
that allows you to choose a specific source, that is a current screen with
mouse cursor. When you move mouse to another screen, the recording will switch
to that screen. It is called "follow mouse" in the screenshot
https://www.maartenbaert.be/simplescreenrecorder/. This feature is helpful when
you want to record some tutorial on video, while operating on your several
monitors. I wish I could use such thing in KDE on Wayland.
Currently the screen share dialog has options of special sources "Full
Workspace", "New Virtual Output" and a list of all your physical monitors. In
KDE the screen with mouse is called "Active Screen". I want to see a special
option "Active Screen" in that dialog.
