Description Dmitrii Chermnykh 2024-04-02 07:14:09 UTC 
SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use Wayland
2. Press a shortcut for taking a rectangular region screenshot (reproduces better on big screenshot area on a high resolution screen)
3. Press "ctrl+C" shortcut multiple times quickly

OBSERVED RESULT
The screenshot is copied multiple times resulting in broken clipboard image or empty image; spectacle floods with notifications about the screenshot being copied for each "ctrl+c" keypress 

EXPECTED RESULT
The screenshot should be copied only once

Can you reproduce it under high system load (with something like s-tui)?
