qtintegration's Introduction

Qt applications integration

License GitHub release GitHub issues CI

Qt applications integration with the Liri desktop environment.

The plugins included in this repository use Qt private APIs, hence you have to rebuild it every time Qt is updated.

Contains:

  • Platform theme plugin.
  • Client-side decoration for Qt applications on Wayland.

Material Decoration

Set QT_WAYLAND_DECORATION=material in the environment to see Qt applications using Material Design window decorations in a Wayland session.

Make sure QT_WAYLAND_DISABLE_WINDOWDECORATION is not set, otherwise Qt will not use any client-side decoration.

Dependencies

Qt >= 6.6.0 with at least the following modules is required:

And the following modules:

Installation

mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/prefix ..
make
make install # use sudo if necessary

Replace /path/to/prefix to your installation prefix. Default is /usr/local.

qtintegration's Issues

Rename repository

Since this repository now contains multiple plugins to integrate the Liri desktop environment with Qt, we should change name.

QtWayland shell integration for layer shell

We currently use a QML library for layer shell on the client side that doesn't integrate very well with the platform plugin.
Windows are made visible as soon as they are configured and when they are hidden and shown again, they are not recreated.
Also, it's hard to handle popup and modal windows but with a shell integration plugin we could hide all those details very well.

The idea is to make a LayerSurface interface exposed to clients written with QML, then the shell integration plugin finds the interface associated with the window and gets all the layer surface attributes from it.
While the shell integration plugin depends on a private API and will need to be rebuilt every time Qt is updated, the interface can be public.

Drop layer shell

LayerShellQt recently became useful to applications written with QML.
With the transition to Qt 6 and KF6 we can use the latest version of LayerShellQt that has QML support.
We drop our code in favor of a dependency that is already on all Linux distributions.
