@falktx ooh. I think plugins that just display xdg windows can be trivially embedded using an embedded compositor like Casilda for Gtk! Probably would make a lot of sense to start defining a new shell protocol for embedded plug-in type things tho?.. Like fullscreen-shell but instead of outputs it would have.. present_surface_for_slot with slots being defined out of band by the host and identified by id/token?

@falktx great achievement ๐ I do not know a lot about this, but might this solve the scaling issues of plugin windows in x11 hosts such as Ardour? A specific example would be the Surge XT utility windows. Once detached, they no longer respect the scaling.

@falktx Very interesting! We tried to answer a related question for the @linuxaudioplugindevelopment #faq at https://linuxmusicians.com/viewtopic.php?p=178820#p178820. This is what we came up with: https://linuxaudio.dev/#pipewire-and-wayland Do you mind having a look and telling me if you think that could/should be phrased differently? Thanks for your help in advance! ๐
