Introduction

Before: Spectacle Desktop works on mobile, but is not usable

Spectacle is a popular screenshot application made by KDE with an impressive range of screenshot options. It uses the screenshot backend of kwin and provides additionally a fallback backend for other window manager, therefore it works on any Linux Distribution, even on mobile linux systems like plasma mobile.

Unfortunately the ui of Spectacle is not respsonsive and can therefore not used with a good user experience on plasma mobile. Additionally it also uses a Qt Widgets Frontend, which provides more desktop oriented controls.

My proposal is to create a new user interface suited for mobile, which exposes all on mobile usable features of the desktop version. The user inter interface will be created in qml with KDE's toolkit Kirigami to provide a better mobile experience. A shared frontend, if practical, would be the best option, but would be out of scope for this project. Nevertheless, the ui should me made with responsiveness in mind and should use components, which could be used on the desktop version as well or are already used.

Design

Part of my project was obviously coming up with a design for spectacle mobile. I therefore decided to use figma to create some mockups I could present to the community.
