This might be a nice addition. KDE's nightlight feature makes the screenshot look orange.

It's already supposed to do this. A quick test on my system shows that while Night Color is active, screenshots taken with Spectacle are not tinted. I gather you're seeing something else?

Can you confirm that:
- You're using Spectacle and not a different screenshot app
- You're using Night Color and not RedShift
- What capture mode you're using in Spectacle

And can you attach an inappropriately tinted screenshot please?

Thanks!
