Hello everyone! This is my first time posting on this forum.
I am having an issue where I am unable to share a window in video-communication apps (meet, zoom etc.)
I previously used Firefox, where I was only able to share my entire screen. The share tab and window sections were both blank. Then I switched to Chromium and the tabs became visible in the “share tab” section. This ability thus seemed like an app issue. But the “share window” section is still blank in all the browsers. This is the feature that I would like to enable somehow.
Through a few google searches, it seemed like using Wayland may be able to fix this issue. But my previous experience with KDE+Wayland has not been smooth. I faced some weird issues.
Is there any way through which I can enable “window sharing” feature specifically?
Thanks and regards
