Description Kai Uwe Broulik 2025-05-13 16:41:45 UTC 
SUMMARY
It is only shown after releasing the mouse and the toolbar shows. I often use Spectacle as a measuring tool :)

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Meta+Shift+PrtScr
2. Drag a selection

OBSERVED RESULT
Only a selection rect, no size info

EXPECTED RESULT
Selection rect with size info as in the old version

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: git master as of 2025-05-13
Qt Version: 6.9.0
