Description nilskemail+kde 2025-02-24 23:57:30 UTC

SUMMARY
Holding shift when drawing or editing a screenshot shows a magnified section of the cursor plus a crosshair.
When editing the screenshot this is broken for tools like "Draw freehand" etc. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create screenshot (with draw region)
2. Check that pressing shift and moving the cursor around correctly shows the magnified section plus crosshair
3. In the on-screen toolbar select "Freehand"
4. Again, press and hold shift and move the cursor around

OBSERVED RESULT
The magnification window gets stuck/frozen as soon as the cursor leaves the on-screen toolbar

EXPECTED RESULT
The magnification window should correctly follow the cursor

I can confirm the same behaviour on:

- Fedora 42 with Spectacle 6.3.4
- Fedora 41 with Spectacle 24.08.2
- KDE Neon Unstable with Spectacle 6.3.80.

Comment 2 Noah Davis 2025-05-21 07:32:20 UTC

I might need to change some of the annotation tool modifier keys to avoid overlap with the magnifier key in rectangle mode along with the magnifier position fixes.

CaptureOverlay: Only show magnifier with no annotation tool selected

I'd like to be able to show the magnifier in more contexts in the future. The current version was not designed to work with the annotation tools since there are some key handling conflicts, so I'm just disabling it while annotating.
