It's also possible to specify the backend to be used via the command line:
> $ QT_QUICK_BACKEND=software spectacle

You can add this to the Spectacle's desktop file.

Switching the Qt Quick scenegraph backend to the QSGRendererInterface::Software
fixes the issue for me:

My initial thinking was not that there was an issue with the Nvidia driver but
in my case, my Intel driver.  I thought this because my work-around is to force
spectacle to use my Nvidia card, not my (current) default Intel.

The above is a very interesting (at least to me) data point.  It would not
suggest a graphics driver issue.  

However, this technology stack is not my area of expertise.

Hi,

With my dual GPU laptop using openSUSE Tumbleweed, I use /prime-select/ to
offload the graphics to my Nvidia card - see

Hi Pier,

To confirm, you are saying that you created a new vanilla, Linux User spectacle
works but it does not work with your existing user?  Both using say X11 or
Wayland?  

What graphic card(s) do you have?  Below is my set up:

I'm going to reopen this just so it's easier for people to find since it's an
ongoing issue that keeps getting duplicate bug reports. I still think this is
some kind of driver issue and likely not an issue that can be fixed in
Spectacle.

FWIW, which isn't much as in it's only one data point, this is the first time
I've had an issue.

It took a bit of research to get the right environment variables to offload. 
Once sorted though, it's been steady.  Except for this bugger of an issue.  :)

Again, thank you so much for helping me out.  I truly appreciate it!

That's right.   For unknown reasons, the Intel iGPU is unhappy.   Which is very
funky.  I too am on openSUSE TW.  I may dig into this issue as time permits.

Not sure why there's an ouch.   It's Linux.  There are always edge cases that
we work-around.:)

Mucho better!

Hi Noah,

Thank you so much for your help!  I've figured it out.  It's my Nvidia Optimus
setting.  When I force `spectacle` to run on my Nvidia card, it's all good -
see the attached blurry picture.

Here's a shell script that I cobbled together to run applications on my dGPU:

::: run_on_nvidia :::
#!/bin/bash

#
# Run GPU intensive applications via our Nvidia card
#
export __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1
export __VK_LAYER_NV_optimus="NVIDIA_only"
export __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD_PROVIDER="NVIDIA-G0"
export __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME="nvidia"

exec "$@"

# Never reached
exit 0

Thank you for your test results.  

The biggest difference I see is that in your example, I can see the spectacle
controls.  In my case, they're white-ish which makes them extremely difficult
to discern.

Is it possibly a GPU issue?  This rig is an Optimus Nvidia laptop.  I have it
set in /Offset/ mode.  The primary GPU is the iGPU, Intel.

What OS are you using?  Perhaps I can stand up a VM to run a quick test.  

I'm open to any ideas to test things out.

Does this image also look washed out to you? Making sure it's not a screen

Vanilla Linux user test

Hi,

Attached are the results of using a new, vanilla Linux user.

The /with-effects/ sub-directory is the true, vanilla Linux user.

The /with-no-effects/ sub-directory contains the test results with all the
effects disabled.

I am having to use my phone's camera to take the pictures.  I try to keep it
the same distance.

I'm going to try to rule out my own environment by creating a vanilla Linux
user.  I'll incrementally add to it:

1) Vanilla
2) Disable all effects
3) Switch to dark theme

I should have thought of that before submitting the bug.  Sorry about that ...
be right back.

After selecting /Rectangular Region/ option

Hi Noah,

Good call.  I hadn't thought of that being an issue.  I disabled all effects
and for good measure, re-logged in.  The bleaching is still there but now it's
.. different.
