Description

Fullscreen windows can be forced to stay redirected through GNOME Shell instead of bypassing the compositor. It is useful for users troubleshooting screen capture, overlays, tearing or compositor-related behavior.

Changing compositor behavior can affect gaming performance, latency and recording. Test with the specific fullscreen applications you care about.
