-- Information about the crash:
While capturing the screenshot, I added some text annotations.

Then I pushed the image into Spectacle because I wanted to edit one of the texts.

That's when Spectacle crashed.

The reporter is unsure if this crash is reproducible.

-- Backtrace:
Application: Spectacle (spectacle), signal: Segmentation fault

Can't reproduce with current git master of Spectacle, but the steps to reproduce are a bit vague.

Unfortunately the backtrace is entirely in Qt, so it's possible this is a Qt issue--maybe one that's already been fixed in Qt6, which would explain my inability to reproduce it, assuming I was testing correctly.
Comment 2 Nate Graham 2025-10-30 20:16:17 UTC 
Can you still reproduce this with Spectacle from Plasma 6.5, and Qt 6.9.2 or later?
