SUMMARY Allow horizontally and vertically scrolling screenshots when using the Active Window mode in Spectacle. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Screenshot an application using Active Window (or other window-specific recognition). OBSERVED RESULT Spectacle only captures what is currently rendered. EXPECTED RESULT It should be able to capture the entirety of the application's GUI, including what is possible to render using scrollbars (be they vertical or horizontal) but aren't currently rendered.

When I drag a window to be partially offscreen and then take an Active Window screenshot of it in Spectacle, I get the whole window. I'm on Plasma 6 Wayland. Maybe it's an X11-only issue? Can you try on Wayland?

I think what he wants is something like what Android screenshots can do. On Android, you can take a scrolling screen shot by initiating the screenshot and then you get a Capture More button or a button with two down arrows on the screenshot. Capturing more allows you to select a larger area outside the current view, much like you can with firefox screenshots. The double down arrow button continually pages down and appends to the current screenshot until you click the record button (actually acts as a stop button). This only works with apps that support the feature, not universally, so it may not be possible for us to implement this kind of feature entirely within spectacle.
