Bug ID: 514798
Summary: Fractional scaling under Wayland copies incorrect
portion of screen
Classification: Applications
Product: Spectacle
Version First unspecified
Reported In:
Platform: CachyOS
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: General
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When using Spectacle under Wayland with fractional scaling set, what is
selected by the selection box and what is copied to the clipboard differs. For
example, if I take a screen shot of the center of my screen, Spectacle actually
copies another part of my screen to the left and up.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Press print screen
2. Select area
3. Wrong area of the screen is copied/saved to image
OBSERVED RESULT
Area copied/saved to image is actually on the top left part of screen
EXPECTED RESULT
Area copied/saved to image is exactly where the selection box was used to
select the portion of the screen
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 6.17.9-2-cachyos
KDE Plasma Version: plasmashell 6.5.4
KDE Frameworks Version: (not available via kf6-config on this system)
Qt Version: qt6-base 6.10.1-2.1
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I searched for previous reports for Kwin, Wayland, and Spectacle. I saw bug
reports regarding Wayland and fractional scaling, but none that indicated that
the actual selection box in Spectacle was completely broken as I have been
observing.
Info that may or may not be related in order of assumed relevancy:
Verified behavior by forcing Spectacle to use Wayland - not just assuming
Wayland was being used
