This sounds intentional, that way you can include part of the panel in your screenshot if desired.
Comment 2 gudvinr+kde 2023-02-01 08:02:35 UTC 
If that was my intention, I'd raise panel before making screenshot.
The whole point of screenshot is that once you hit the button, everything is frozen.

Why would anyone want stuff to be dynamic after you take screenshot?

By the way, if you have panel raised when you hit screenshot button, SECOND panel appears on top of it if you move your mouse.
Well, actually it is the only real panel but anyway.

Also your theory is wrong and if you raise panel after you hit the button, this raised panel not even rendered on screenshot.

My apologies I didn't consider the intent that once the key is pressed 
that the desktop should be static, you are correct.

Cannot reproduce in the Spectacle 23.04 release. Seems to be fixed there.
