SUMMARY *** NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols. See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports *** STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Launch Spectacle using a key (like "Print", assigned to "take screenshot" action) 2. double click to copy the image to clipboard 3. wait 10s, try to paste the image in Dolphin OBSERVED RESULT The Dialog "enter filename for paste" appears, image is not openable. If you take a screenshot and copy it to draft manually it works. In Settings "save screenshot to draft" is enabled, saving the image to a folder is disabled. EXPECTED RESULT Working normally also using the shortcut, making it more efficient. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Fedora Linux 37 KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.102.0 Qt Version: 5.15.8 Kernel Version: 6.1.6-200.fc37.x86_64 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland
In step 2, what are you double-clicking to copy the image to the clipboard? When you manage to copy it, does it appear in the Clipboard popup in the system tray? What is the "save screenshot to draft" option you're referring to? Where is it; where does it live?

Where is > it; where does it live? Under KDE shortcuts I select Spectacle and assign the activity "take screenshot of selection" to the Print button. I select the area and double click in the middle, normally that copies the selection. I am not sure, I can copy it with the "copy to clipboard button". I need to launch spectacle to do that, an activity I assigned to "meta+print". If I only use the copy activity, spectacle stays in the background all the time, which is nice. The "save sceeenshot to draft" button is on the spectacle window, right next to the selected screenshot preview.
