Environment variable `GOLDENDICT_FORCE_WAYLAND` can be used to force GD to run in Wayland mode, like `env GOLDENDICT_FORCE_WAYLAND=1 goldendict`.

!!! danger "Don't use unless you know!"
|
|
This flag only guarantees GD to run in wayland mode and won't crash, but nothing more.
|
|
|
|
Enable this will break scan popup, global hotkeys and probably other things.

## Current reality
|
|
|
|
!!! note "Help wanted"
|
|
Need help to redesign scan popup for wayland.
|
|
|
|
Scan popup is implemented with `querying mouse cursor's position` and `setting a window's absolute global position`.
|
|
Wayland does not support both by design and philosophy.
|
|
|
|
Wayland does not support registering global hotkeys until very recently, but a reasonable wayland desktop environment should provide some way to bind keys to commands globally. |
