See also: Bug 381232 - spectacle graphic window disappears when I take a New
Screenshot.

I am new to spectacle AND Fedora 25 (long time user of Fedora 21 and
ksnapshot).
spectacle graphic window appears as expected.
The spectacle graphic window disappears when I take a New Screenshot.
The process is still running in background.

I was experimenting to look for clues.
I brought up spectacle from the command line (using Konsole) and I get the
following error printed out: 

[mblair@localhost 05_Business_Development]$ spectacle&
[1] 14352
[mblair@localhost 05_Business_Development]$ QPainter::begin: Paint device
returned engine == 0, type: 2

qrc:///QuickEditor/EditorRoot.qml:75:5: QML Image: Failed to get image from
provider: image://snapshot/rawimage

In case the video driver is an issue here:

  *-display

Does this help explain my problem with running spectacle?
Thank you

I can confirm that spectacle hangs my system, on manjaro, bumblebee
(proprietary nvidia + mesa intel) with kernel 4.4.70, xorg 1.19.3 and spectacle
17.04.1.

Everything becomes unresponsive, even switching to a VT becomes impossible. The
mouse still moves, about once every 5-15 seconds. Clicking, dragging, pressing
escape or enter does not do anything (I tried all of those + waited a couple of
minutes for a reaction)

Using anything other than rectangle select does not hang the system, and even
rectangle selection works without crashing the system *sometimes*, but I did
not notice any obvious pattern.

Here are the relevant-looking entries from the journalctl log:

Hope that helps, and hope this bug can be resolved quickly!

I can confirm the issue in: Kubuntu 17.04, Plasma 5.9.4, nouveau driver.

It always hangs on the rectangular region screenshot.

Yeah, I also can confirm this bug with "Rectangle region" screenshots. After
pressing the "Tale a New Screenshot" button my system hangs for some seconds
and then I am able to create the screenshot. I observed that this bug only
occurs on my Laptop with an Intel GPU (modesetting driver). If I use my PC at
home with my Nvidia GPU (official Nvidia driver), the bug does not occur.

This is happening to me too. I'm using the latest version of plasma on Arch
Linux. For the past few weeks, anytime I try to take a screenshot with
Spectacle, something odd happens. I'm not actually %100 percent sure what is
happening, but the taskbar at the bottom of the screen stops responding, and I
can't alt-tab to another window. The computer seems to freeze for a minute, and
then I am logged out. This happens every time I try to take the screenshot,
usually after it actually takes the screenshot and while I am trying to export
the image to imgur.
This only happens when I click "Take new screenshot". I can start up spectacle
and use the screenshot it takes when it starts up any way I want with no
abnormal behavior.
Spectacle 16.12.1-1
KDE Plasma 5.8.5
KDE Frameworks 5.8.0

This just happen to me today, not sure if it's a bigger issues with KDE Plasma?

FYI: I have a fresh install of Kubuntu, using the standard Nouveau video
driver, using KDE PPA.

I believe the problem show up when

1. I have "On Click" checkout selected
2. Area is "Rectangular Region"

When I click on the "Take New Screenshot" button, and then click once, at t his
point the screens dimmed, around this period the hang will occur.

The mouse is continue to move, screen remain dimmed. I an unable to click to
start area selection. My keyboard stop functioning and I am unable to escape
out of capture mode.

I am not sure if it matters that "On Click" checkout is selected, just that
last time I was using the tool it was selected.

My suggestion:

* When area is "Rect. Region" selection, doesn't make sense to have option "On
click" available.

* When Window under cursor is selected it make sense to click on a window, this
should be implicit and not require a "On Click" option.

* Active Window doesn't make sense, the active window will be "Spectable" right
and you will be forced to "click on another window", the same as my previous
point.

This GUI could be simplified too many conflicting and confusing "needless"
options.

Please report one ticket per issue. Could you clarify exactly at which point
the system hangs?
