I should clarify by multiple, I've never had this fail twice in a row. Hi - just to check: * Are you able to reproduce this using Plasma / Spectacle 6.3.3? * What notification settings do you have for Spectacle? (looking at a possible connection to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=500042 ) * Is this in windowed applications, or in full-screen ones? (looking at https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=496029 ) Thanks!

Yes I've still had it happen recently after updates, I do not have the spectacle notifications disabled so 500042 is unrelated. 496029 is possibly related if borderless window would be considered equivalent to fullscreen. I'll update after I see it happen a few more times to confirm if I can reproduce it when there is not a borderless window application running. I definitely had it happen with no fullscreen apps running, so 496029 is unrelated. Took a screenshot of my browser while playing RuneScape (in maximized window mode) and it wasn't on my clipboard after that. I left journalctl open in my terminal to see if anything was output when it happens, sadly the only thing that gets output is: Mar 16 09:49:06 camelot spectacle[58740]: libva error: /usr/lib/dri/nvidia_drv_video.so init failed Mar 16 09:49:06 camelot spectacle[58740]: kpipewire_vaapi_logging: VAAPI: Failed to initialize display Mar 16 09:49:06 camelot spectacle[58740]: kpipewire_vaapi_logging: VAAPI: VA-API NVDEC driver [direct backend] in use for device "/dev/dri/renderD128" But it seems these are output every time, even when the image is successfully copied. I've noticed this also. I am using CopyQ, and I can see the screenshot in my clipboard history, so I know it is actually copied, but attempting to paste it from the clipboard, fails. All signs suggest that there's nothing in the clipboard at all. When I paste it from CopyQ's history, it works, and will paste from the clipboard after that... It seems that the copy is actually successful, but the clipboard is cleared immediately afterwards.

Can confirm this is the same behavior for me turned on the plasma clipboard history widget and can always see the image in the history even when I cannot paste it. Not sure if this is related or not but I have a similar issue with `plasma-emojier` that is much more repeatable. - open plasma-emojier - copy an emoji - close the window - the emoji will be deleted from my clipboard 100% of the time If I do not close the window it stays, this could be the same issue since in the case of spectacle it is closing itself.
