Bug ID: 483586
Summary: Spectacle window no longer returns when using hotkeys?
Classification: Applications

Version: 24.02.0
Platform: Other

Taking screenshots with buttons in the window, followed by using hotkeys.
SUMMARY
Settings:
When launching Spectacle: Use last-used capture mode
After taking a screenshot: [unchecked] Save file to default folder
Copy image to clipboard
Press screenshot key to: Take a new Screenshot
While a Spectacle window is open, pressing a hotkey combo closes the window
while taking the screenshot. But the window doesn't return after the screenshot
is taken. Clicking any of the screenshot method buttons in the application
closes the window to take the screenshot, but still brings it back afterwards.
Using a hotkey combo while a Spectacle window is not open no longer brings one
up after the screenshot is taken, but a notification does still appear. If
"After taking a screenshot: Save file to default folder" is unchecked and "Copy
image to clipboard" is selected, the only way to save the screenshot through
the notification is with annotations which is cumbersome.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Spectacle / Skip
2. Press screenshot hotkey combo (IE Meta+Print for active window)
OBSERVED RESULT
Spectacle window doesn't return/open after taking the screenshot.
EXPECTED RESULT
Spectacle window returns/opens after taking the screenshot.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: CachyOS
KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0
Qt Version: 6.6.2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comparing to Spectacle 23.08.5 which brings the window back after using a
hotkey combo to take a screenshot while it's open. Or brings a window up after
using a screenshot combo while no Spectacle window was open.
If this was an intentional change, an option to retain the previous behavior
would be useful.
