Bug ID: 463417
Summary: Capture Rectangular Region works differently now
Classification: Applications
Product: Spectacle
Version: 22.12.0
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: General
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.
See
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Bind a keyboard binding to Spectacle's "Capture Rectangular Region" action
(I used Meta-$).
2. Invoke the keyboard binding.
OBSERVED RESULT
Spectacle shows a rectangle at a seemingly arbitrary size and location on the
screen. You have to drag and resize it then press Enter to take a screeenshot
of that region of the screen.
EXPECTED RESULT
You left click and drag to start one corner of the rectangle, and the opposite
corner is determined by where you release the drag. This was the old behavior.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Manjaro Linux
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.101.0
Qt Version: 5.15.7
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The old behavior is very similar to what happens on macOS, which is why I
prefer it to work the same way, because I need to switch between macOS and
Linux on a regular basis.
