The monitor screenshot preview appearing cut off (This is with the main monitor disabled)

SUMMARY
When having a monitor (2560x1440) with other monitors (1920x1080) Disabling the 2560x1440 monitor causes the other monitors to take screenshots that are cut off

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Disable the main monitor (largest one)
2. Try to take a screenshot
3.  Will appear cut off

OBSERVED RESULT
The screenshot preview appears cut off

EXPECTED RESULT
The screenshot preview to not appear cut off when my main monitor is disabled

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
(available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a terminal window)
Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version:  6.5.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.2.0
Qt Version: 6.10.0

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
When enabling the monitor again, the screenshot preview  will not cut off. The only other way to fix is by rebooting. If the main monitor was already disabled when the pc was booted this problem wont happen

Not sure when, but when I updated recently it seems to have fixed this.
