That means that program should get cursor shape and lay it over bitmap as most of recent videocards do cursor in hardware and will not allow to grab it directly from screen.

For example, include "paint bucket" cursor in graphic object for OpenOffice.org DRAW documentation. Alternative would be some "clip art" feature somewhere in KDE so that I could copy an image of some particular mouse cursor shape (such as the paint bucket shape) and overlay the clip art onto my ksnapshot image. Found all sorts of mouse cursor shapes, but no paint bucket.

It relies on the XFIXES extension. It adds a new checkbox that allows you to turn the feature on and off, and a couple DCOP functions to get and set the state of the checkbox. It also adds DCOP functions to get and set the state of the "include decorations" checkbox, since I didn't see existing ones. And it fixes a couple of variables that could have been used before they were initialized.

KSnapshot also changes the cursor to a crosshair while you're doing this. That's why the patch disables the mouse cursor grabbing when in region mode. I don't know how you'd make them compatible... stop and wait for a subsequent mouse click inside the rectangle you just drew?

I will look into the code. #35 It is probably against my patch, but I haven't seen anything similar. Does it happen all the time? (Both from ksnapshot and PrtSc), Nevertheless you can test against trunk now, but I doubt there are that many ways to grab the cursor - and John patch probably works in a similar way. I use: XFixesCursorImage *xfcursorImage = XFixesGetCursorImage( QX11Info::display()); QImage mouseCursor( (uchar*)xfcursorImage->pixels,xfcursorImage->width, xfcursorImage->height, QImage::Format_ARGB32_Premultiplied ); Could it be that this only happens if you press PrtSc or does it happen from knsapshot itself? I had some problems *not* getting a waiting cursor when ksnapshot was loading (on PrtSc) - and I wonder if this could be a timing issue. (Meaning happening when PrtSc was pressed and when mouse-cursor was changing back to normal cursor pointer. Meaning that the *xfcursorImage is getting invalid.)
