Can confirm when pasting into a text field on invent.kde.org on Firefox. The pasted filename ends with .png, so either it's lying about the file format, or somewhere along the way, the transparency got removed. |
Created attachment 181148 [details] Screenshot of Info Center with a black background. It is supposed to have a transparent background, showing the window's shadow. SUMMARY Exactly what it says in the title, although it is either seemingly random unless one presses the Copy button afterwards and/or happens after Spectacle is closed. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Spectacle and take an Active/Selected Window screenshot with "Include window titlebar and borders" enabled, "Copy image to clipboard" set in the "After taking a screenshot" dropdown list, and selected PNG in "Image Saving", "Filename" dropdown list. 2. Let it automatically copy the image to clipboard and then paste it somewhere (better results when Spectacle is closed based on my observations) 3. See the issue OBSERVED RESULT See the picture. EXPECTED RESULT Same picture, but without the fully opaque background.
