12:27 <Guest17779> Hi everyone! I'm trying to embed a client window inside another window using xdg-foreign protocol. although I managed to export/import the first window correctly, I need to adjust its positioning relative the parent window.

12:28 <Guest17779> I need to do something similar to xid in X11

12:44 <zamundaaa[m]> Guest17779: that is not supported

12:48 <Guest17779> is there a way I can achieve similar result with some additional work? all I need is to embed the window inside a parent window (done with xdg foreign) and handle it's resizing and position with some callbacks

12:49 <Guest17779> I was thinking about some brute force way using ipc to transfer messages of resizing

12:55 <zamundaaa[m]> No, embedding is just not supported. Xdg foreign is for dialogs and similar very much separate windows

12:56 <kennylevinsen> Guest17779: the only way is to have the parent window import the content itself - it could create a subsurface and commit buffers it receives from the embedded client. it is also possible to "just" embed a Wayland server (see e.g. casilda, which is a GTK widget containing a wlroots-based Wayland server)

12:58 <kennylevinsen> (casilda reference: https://blogs.gnome.org/xjuan/2024/09/13/introducing-casilda-wayland-compositor-widget/)

13:03 <Guest17779> kennylevinsen: how can I import the content of another window (receive buffer from embedded client)?

13:05 <kennylevinsen> if you're embedding a Wayland server, that's handled by Wayland. otherwise any communication between the embedded client and the parent is done by you, so whatever you like - for GPU buffers you'd need to use dmabufs

13:06 <kennylevinsen> you can't embed anything existing that way, you'll have to write the parent and client to explicitly talk together over a custom protocol you make (... unless you just embed a Wayland server)

13:08 <Guest17779> alright, I'll try this and see if it works. thanks a lot for your time.

15:56 <emersion> ew, looks like i missed the RC last week
