            Bug ID: 473824
           Summary: Shortcut for screenshot stopped working
    Classification: Plasma
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: 5.27.6
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
          Reporter: php4...@gmail.com
                CC: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
  Target Milestone: 1.0

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Hit Super+Shift+PrintScreen

or whatever the usual combination of keys is for taking a screenshot by drawing
a rectangle.

Since I usually do it with my fingers without even looking, I am not 100% sure,
but it has stopped working and I have tried all combinations such as ctrl+alt,
shift+alt, alt+shift etc, just in case the one I remember (super+shift) is not
the correct one.

OBSERVED RESULT

Does nothing


EXPECTED RESULT

Should show the UI for drawing a rectangle and taking a screenshot.

I wonder if this is related to the fact that the screen locker has crashed, or
whatever it is that normally allows you to unlock the screen when it's locked.
It now shows the black screen with the instructions to unlock manually from a
virtual console, and I haven't rebooted since. So I wonder if something causes
both that and the screenshot keyboard shortcuts to have stopped working.

Oh and now I'm also unable to open System Settings so that I can go to "About
this system" to copy the details. The icon shows up for a fraction of a second
and disappears. I guess that crashes too.

So basically my system is a f***ing mess and I'm gonna have to reboot.
