I am unable to take a "Rectangular Region" screenshot on Wayland (Wayland option on login, openSUSE) using Spectacle. Fullscreen and single window screenshots work fine. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Use Wayland 2. Open Spectacle and select "Rectangular Region" for area 3. Press "Take a New Screenshot" OBSERVED RESULT Spectacle disappears very briefly, then reappears with the message "Could not take a screenshot. Please report this bug here: create a spectacle bug". EXPECTED RESULT Screenshot is taken normally SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux: openSUSE Tumbleweed (20210621) [5.12.12-1-default #1 SMP Fri Jun 18 11:07:46 UTC 2021 (0e46a2c) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux] KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.1 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.83.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION None
I couldn't reproduce the bug on Plasma 5.22.2. Maybe it's something specific to openSUSE? Did you change any of the default settings?
In terms of settings, within Spectacle I remember changing some, but I can't remember which, settings. My current settings are as follows (where not mentioned options are disabled): After taking screenshot: Copy image to clipboard Press screenshot key to: Take a new screenshot Rectangular region/general: Accept on click-and-release Remember selected area: Never Outside of Spectacle, I've changed plenty of settings. None of them seem relevant though. As for it being an openSUSE issue, that's quite possible, since I know openSUSE changes some of the Wayland config to split login options to Wayland and Full Wayland. I'm using "Wayland" currently and haven't tested on "Full Wayland". Do you think this would be better suited for the openSUSE bugtracker?
Spectacle does not support the mixed wayland x session of opensuse
