Description Chris Cameron 2025-08-22 15:44:20 UTC 
SUMMARY
When exporting a screenshot inside Spectacle to an application, the screenshot is saved but with a file name of `Screenshot_<yyyy><MM><dd>_<HH><mm><ss>.png` - Literally this, with the date and time not filled in.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Make your selection for a screenshot
2. In the menu that pops up, choose "Export" and choose an application, like Gwenview.
3. Make a note of the file name.

OBSERVED RESULT
The saved screenshot file name will be `Screenshot_<yyyy><MM><dd>_<HH><mm><ss>.png`

EXPECTED RESULT
File name should reflect the current date and time.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: openSUSE Tumbleweed
KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.16.0
Qt Version: 6.9.1
