Created attachment 130862 [details] The failed screenshot SUMMARY Every so often, say, 1 in 3 times, when Spectacle takes a screenshot, it does something odd with compositing and creates massive artifacts over the screen and fails to render parts of windows properly, instead causing odd blur. These artifacts ARE visible when using the rectangle tool, so you can normally see ahead of time, luckily. I have taken two screenshots, one of which was normal, the other of which has the said artifacts. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Take a screenshot OBSERVED RESULT See attached file WTF2.png EXPECTED RESULT See attached file normal.png SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) Operating System: Manjaro Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.19.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.72.0 Qt Version: 5.15.0 Kernel Version: 5.7.9-1-MANJARO OS Type: 64-bit Processors: 8 × Intel® Core™ i5-8265U CPU @ 1.60GHz Memory: 7.5 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® UHD Graphics 620 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Yikes, that's weird. Seems like a kwin or graphics drives issue.
This bug was reported against an outdated version of KWin. We have made many changes since the. If the issue persists in newer versions can you reopen the bug report updating the version number.
