LXQt, the lightweight Qt based desktop environment, released new version 2.3.0 few days ago.

The new release of this free open-source Linux desktop continued improving Wayland support. The Desktop Switcher panel applet now works on Labwc, niri, and Wayfire Wayland compositors that support ext-workspaces-v1 protocol.

ScreenGrab, the screenshot tool, can now take screenshot under Wayland compositors that support “wlr screencopy protocol”, such as Hyprland and Sway. It now has a better border color for selection rectangle on X11, and features a new command-line option for saving screenshot and exiting without showing window.

The lxqt-wayland-session has been updated with new lxqt-qdbus making various qdbus commands easier to use with all Wayland compositors. And a new PIC based backend has been added for Wayfire.

And, the Power Management Settings now has a new section for Wayland to turn off monitor, using KWin, niri or Hyprland command.

Besides Wayland improvements, LXQt 2.3.0 also improved the PCManFM-Qt file manager by adding new “Safely Remove” option to the side-pane context menu when possible, as well as an option to disable file tooltips on desktop.

And the Custom Command applet is now more flexible in both Wayland and X11 by supporting structured output and being updated every time it receives output.

Other changes in LXQt 2.3.0 include:

• The Show Desktop plugin is activated on drag-and-drop.
• Scroll on backlight plugin button to adjust backlight.
• Locale-aware sorting in Fancy Menu and Main Menu.
• Add emoji flags and “Toggle Bookmarks” view context menu option to QTerminal.
• LZ4 support in LXQt Archiver.
• Add multi-page TIFF and animated webp images support for lximage-qt image viewer.
• Add -q|--quiet parameter for lxqt-sudo.
• Use --extract-here for “Extract Here” with lxqt-archiver.
• New wiki at lxqt-project.org/wiki.
• For more, see the official release note.
