Bug ID: 494568
Summary: Screenshot buttons don't honor settings
Classification: Applications
Product: Spectacle
Version: 24.08.1
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: General
Assignee: noaha...@gmail.com
Reporter: p...@sadauskas.com
CC: k...@david-redondo.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Spectacle's settings dialog has options for what do to after taking a
screenshot. In my case, I have "Save file to default folder" checked, and "Copy
image to clipboard" selected.
When I press the shortcut key to take a screenshot of a region and select the
region, the toolbar appears with "Save", "Copy", etc... These buttons do
exactly what they say, and nothing more. Eg, if I click "Copy", the file does
not get saved according to the setting.
To do both, I have to press "Enter" on my keyboard, which isn't an obvious
thing that will happen.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enable the settings to automatically save the screenshot and copy to
clipboard
2. Take a region screenshot
3. Click "Copy"
OBSERVED RESULT
File is not saved.
EXPECTED RESULT
File should be saved, as specified by the settings.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Perhaps this is a separate bug, but it would be nice if there was an additional
button on the toolbar to "Annotate". Clicking either "Save" or "Copy" pops up a
KDE notification with an "Annotate" button that opens the screenshot in a
separate window for further annotations. It would be nice if there were a way
to do this directly from the screenshot region toolbar. I personally find the
separate annotate window more intuitive and easier to use than the toolbar. It
also allows me to screenshot things near the edges of my monitor, and then drag
the annotate window to a more central location.
