Same here, Plasma 6.0.1 In my case the internal/laptop display is scaled (125%), while the external monitor is not, and the issue affects only windows on the UNSCALED/external display, while those screenshotted on the scaled/internal display are ok.

I have added a screenshot VS photo comparison to show that what spectacle captures does not reflect reality of what I see on the screen (which is very crisp as shown by the attached macro shot). *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 478426 *** |
