SUMMARY

Launching rectangle spectacle (Meta + shift + print) will only select 2nd monitor, i kept trying to select main screen (my laptop is my main screen) but won't let me and rectangle spectacle only appears on 2nd monitor

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Meta + shift + print to launch
2. Start drawing rectangle to capture screenshot on MAIN SCREEN first
3. Rectangle only appears to capture 2nd monitor, rectangle won't capture  main screen

OBSERVED RESULT

Rectangle only capturing 2nd monitor when selecting main monitor (laptop)

EXPECTED RESULT
Rectangle capture should be capturing wherever i select, it should be capturing main screen if i selected main screen and should be capturing 2nd monitor if i selected 2nd monitor etc

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

Bazzite 42

(available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a terminal window)
Linux/KDE Plasma:  6.3.5
KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.14.0
Qt Version: 6.9.0
Kernel version: 6.14.6-106-bazzite-fc42_x86_64(64-bit)

Seems to be an issue on fedora 42 too 

However for some reason Rectangle capture seems to work fine on Arch Linux
