SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Screenshot with rectangular region
2. Click Copy on the toolbar near the screenshotted area

OBSERVED RESULT
The image isn't in the clipboard when trying to paste, and it doesn't show up in the Clipboard Contents, until the second copy icon is clicked after the preview mode. Copy essentially does the same thing as the Accept button in the screenshot preview step.

EXPECTED RESULT
After clicking the first Copy button, the image should be in the clipboard
