Hello!

Thank you so much the the v4 script!! it works brilliantly!

However, i just attended a teams meeting where i shared my desktop(which workes fine).

When starting the share, you need to choose which part of you computer you want to share however.. and when choosing this - either a screen, window or region... you do this through a small window which appears.

This window is however not possible to close through any means(what I can find..)

I have tried all the known shortcuts or methods(not xkill, pkill though), but its just not going away or gets removed..

I have attached a screenshot of the window which I cannot remove..

Is there any other ways of closing this windows which is not as obvious to most user such like myself? - Would it be possible to add a feature to rightclick on the app in the bottom waybar, to close windows through a context menu?

Ok, i just found that its possible to kill it through btop, by filtering the processes via the text "picker", and then terminating it.

It would however be nice if I could close/kill it through some better way... =)

I now also learned that its the pipewire region picker dialog which is not possible to close, without killing it with btop.. This can reproduced by using obs, and choosing to grab a window source with pipewire...
