Description Sourabh Singh 2021-02-14 10:59:06 UTC 
SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. In terminal type spectacle -c -f 
2. 
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
Screenshot doesn't get copied to the clipboard.

EXPECTED RESULT
Screenshot should get copied to the clipboard

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: KDE neon 5.20
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.78.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This does work when spectacle is open in the background. I've bind it to a shortcut and the copy to clipboard doesn't work but the screenshot gets saved.

The workaround is to keep spectacle running.

Sorry I'm New to reporting.

The command is spectacle -b -c -f actually.

Thank You !

Works for me in Spectacle 21.08. The fix is possibly related to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=411263.

Feel free to reopen if you still encounter the problem!
