--- Comment #3 from EpicTux123 <epictux...@proton.me> ---
Hello. Thanks for your comment. I'll try to clarify what I meant:

The important part of the problem is when selecting the desired area in the
rectangle capture mode (I'll call it the "selection stage").
Understand the "selection stage" as the moment until you let go of your mouse
button to let Spectacle know you have finished your selection.
To replicate the bug, you don't need to have the cross cursor visible. You can
replicate it in the initial/first selection stage.

In the selection stage,
whatever if you go with your initial selection or start a new screenshot when
the cross cursor is visibile,
it's possible to notice that after starting new capture, and while dragging it,
the cursor changes to the hand cursor or the arrow cursor that indicates "you
are resizing this area".
After a certain threshold, only the arrow cursor that indicates "you are
resizing this area" is shown. The hand cursor is nowhere to be seen after
meeting the threshold when you're in the selection stage.

I was thinking when writing this reply and I've come to a conclusion that
showing the hand cursor and the arrow cursor that indicates "you are resizing
this area" when in the selection stage is wrong for both. In the selection
stage, only the cross cursor should be shown.

The hand cursor and the arrow cursor that indicates "you are resizing this
area" should only be shown after you are done with the selection stage (you're
done when you have the options to Copy/Save and some buttons to edit the
image). If you're in the selection stage, the cross cursor should be the only
one visible at all times.

Here is an example from the ShareX app (open-source app, Windows-only):

Only the cross cursor is shown.

Thanks.
