Comment 1 Patrick Silva 2021-10-23 14:14:17 UTC 
The issue here is that apparently nothing happens because the taken screenshot is not copied to clipboard and consequently Plasma does not display a notification.

Humm, the screenshot should be saved after the provided steps despite broken "Copy image to clipboard" feature. On X11, the screenshot is saved after the provided steps, but on Wayland the screenshot is only saved if "Autosave file to default folder" is checked in Spectacle settings.

Currently the screenshot taken on Wayland via keyboard shortcut is saved even when "Save file to default folder" is unchecked in Spectacle settings.

Additional comments:

When 'Save file to default folder' is unchecked and 'Copy image to clipboard' option is selected, a screenshot taken on Wayland via keyboard shortcut is NOT saved to default folder but is copied to clipboard.

The screenshot taken on Wayland via keyboard shortcut is saved to default folder when 'Save file to default folder' is unchecked and 'Copy file location to clipboard' option is selected instead of 'Copy image to clipboard'.

Editing the bug title according to original steps and 'observed result'.
