Bug ID: 468874
Summary: Using background mode with `-b` to hide the GUI and
just save to a file with `-o` no longer works with
`-region`.
Classification: Applications
Product: Spectacle
Version: 23.04.0
Platform: Archlinux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: General

SUMMARY
Using `-b` to hide the GUI and just save to a file with `-o` no longer works
with `-region`. This instead causes spectacle to open it's GUI after selecting
the region to capture, and does not save to the selected file.
The previous behavior when using `-region -b -o="$HOME/somefile.png"` would
immediately let you select a region, and save it to a file once selected
without showing the GUI.
This issue does not happen with the active window and other selection options,
only with selecting a region.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. `spectacle -region -b -o="$HOME/somefile.png"`
2. Left click (for some reason, immediately dragging to capture no longer
works)
3. Region toolbar appears, drag region
4. Spectacle GUI opens without saving the file.
OBSERVED RESULT
Left click drag does not immediately select a region, and GUI opens after
selecting a region.
EXPECTED RESULT
Left click drag should select a region immediately, and the GUI should not open
and instead save the region to a file.
