--- Comment #5 from Noah Davis <noaha...@gmail.com> --- Do you have the system clipboard service/applet enabled (aka Klipper)? It is enabled in the system tray by default. If you don't, then the clipboard contents will be gone when the Spectacle program terminates. There is nothing that can be done about that. It's just how clipboards work on Linux/Unix operating systems when you don't have a system clipboard service enabled. If you are copying from a screenshot initiated via global shortcut or the -b/--background CLI option, then there should be a system notification for the screenshot that lasts for about the amount of time you mentioned. If you are taking screenshots from global shortcuts or with --background with no system clipboard service, that could explain why the clipboard lasts for that amount of time. This is because the spectacle program lives for as long as that notification is floating on the screen. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
