A Screenshot Of The Full-Screen Modal Window

SUMMARY

Spectacle produced a full-screen modal error window when I attempted to invoke a non-existent file.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Capture a screenshot or screencast.

2. Delete the file.

3. Select "Open Containing Folder".

OBSERVED RESULT

The modal error window was full-screen.

EXPECTED RESULT

It should have been the normal size of https://bugsfiles.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=180818.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

I am using `spectacle-6.3.4-2.fc42.x86_64` on:

> Operating System: Fedora Linux 42  
> KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.4  
> KDE Frameworks Version: 6.13.0  
> Qt Version: 6.9.0  
> Kernel Version: 6.14.4-300.fc42.x86_64 (64-bit)  
> Graphics Platform: Wayland

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

I experienced this whilst reproducing https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=503584#short_desc_nonedit_display:~:text=Spectacle%20should%20disable%20the%20%22Open%20Containing%20Folder%22%20button%20when%20the%20file%20no%20longer%20exists.

I have no idea what version to set in BZ, because the available options utilise a different numbering scheme to what Spectacle itself reports (24.12.3 versus 6.3.4). Consequently, I've set it to "Unspecified".

It's at the top, per https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=503584#c4:~:text=Version%206.3.4%20is%20in%20the%20dropdown%2C%20adjusted%20to%20that.
