c++linuxqtgui-testingxdotool
xdotool cannot find Qt application window, where wmctrl can
I want to detect a Qt5 QWidgets application from its
window title using xdotool to test the GUI under GNU/Windows with the latest Xubuntu LTS distro.
When I create any minimal Qt application, with wmctrl -l I can detect it,
with xdotool it cannot be found, as shown here:
(note that searching for Enter s also fails)
Does anybody have a good experience with using xdotool on Qt QWidget applications,
without using tricks like grepping through the wmctrl scripts?
AFAIKS, I am not the only one that has problems with this combination.
Solution
Sadly, I do not know which update caused this, but one day after the question, suddenly everything works as expected:
xdotool can detect Qt windows with spaces in its name as expected.
