SUMMARY

Spectacle has an option "quit after save or copy". In case of copy this option is useless because when quitting the clipboard is deleted. Maybe fix this with modifying this option with just "quit after save". 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Make a screenshot.
2. Activate "quit after save or copy" option.
3. Copy to clipboard.

OBSERVED RESULT
Quit but can't use screenshot.

EXPECTED RESULT
Don't quit or still be able to use screenshot.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Manjaro KDE Edition and Arch Linux.
KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.53
Qt Version: 5.12

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
none

You have enabled the option "Ignore images" on the General settings page of Klipper, right?
If you disable "Ignore images" the option "quit after save or copy" makes sense.
This is mentioned in https://docs.kde.org/trunk5/en/kdegraphics/spectacle/using.html#idm45390830478576

Spectacle should not offer the option "quit after save or copy" or have the button "Copy to Clipboard" and even report "The screenshot has been copied to the clipboard." if Klipper ignores images.

You should change the bug title imho
