Can you be more specific about what the problem is and how to reproduce it? Also, if something is crashing, we need a backtrace of the crash. See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
Comment 2 christian_schneider 2021-10-25 12:21:22 UTC
Spectacle does not crash, it just shows the error message "Could not take a screenshot. Please report this bug here: create a spectacle bug". 
This only occurs with the "Rectangular Region" option, the other two options work fine. I only experience this problem in Wayland Sessions, in X.Org it works fine.
