I was playing with the qt-recordmydesktop application earlier on
today. After selecting a region for recording, and starting to record,
instead of stopping things properly I stupidly killed the application
from the command line. This left behind the qt-recordmydesktop selection
area.
This is a blanks rectangle that my Xfce desktop seems to be
unware of. Its edges occlude everything in my desktop that happens to be
underneath them. It is in all my workspaces, and I seem to be unable to
get rid of it. While not terribly annoying, it is exasperating enough for
me to want to eliminate it.
I guess I'll just have to restart my Xfce session, and that's
that. However, if somebody in this forum has any suggestions to try to
get rid of this rectangle without restarting my Xfce session, if it is
only for my own education, I would like to try that.
