Yes, it is still happening. But now that some time has passed, I can tell you that the issue has disappeared and reappeared a couple of times since I opened the bug report so it might not even be a bug in Spectacle. Is there any way I could provide any further info?

This is my system at the moment:

Operating System: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.99.0
Qt Version: 5.15.7

I'm no developer, hopefully Boudhayan can weigh in soon. I just noticed you're on X11, can you try on Wayland and see if the issue is there as well?

Yes at this time, it seems to happen on both X11 and Wayland.

Setting back to reported as the user confirmed the issue still occurs.
Comment 7 Noah Davis 2023-11-22 15:09:30 UTC
Is this still a problem with 23.04 and onward? Significant code changes have happened.

I think this probably wasn't a Spectacle issue. Spectacle doesn't decide what the thumbnail should look like, except for setting the URL of the screenshot which is then used by something else to get the thumbnail. I'm not sure which product to move it to. It could even be a problem from outside of KDE for all we know. I did encounter this issue very recently, but I'm 99% certain that was a system configuration related issue that was solved by rolling back my system to an earlier snapshot.

Can you check if the issue goes away with clipboard setting "Non-text selection" set as "Only when explicitly copied"?
