--- Comment #1 from JJ <[email protected]> --- Wait a minute, I may be confused. It looks like taking a screenshot using the direct binding for Capture rectangular region saves the screenshot, regardless of whether the setting is set in Spectacle. However, if Copy Image to clipboard is set, the direct binding for Capture rectangular region does _not_ save the image to the file system, only copying it... If that's the case, then not saving to the file system by default when launching Spectacle directly is probably fine. However, I still do think screenshots should be copied to the clipboard by default: and that also means the configuration settings in Spectacle itself are a little confusing! If I am understanding right the behaviour is the following: - If Save file to default folder is unchecked and Do not copy anything is selected: - Taking a screenshot by launching Spectacle directly will not save a file or copy the screenshot to the clipboard. - Taking a screenshot by Capture rectangular region will save a file, but not copy the screenshot to the clipboard. - If Save file to default folder is checked and Do not copy anything is selected: - Taking a screenshot by launching Spectacle directly will save a file, but not copy the screenshot to the clipboard. - Taking a screenshot by Capture rectangular region will save a file, but not copy the screenshot to the clipboard. - If Save file to default folder is checked and Copy image to clipboard is selected: - Taking a screenshot by launching Spectacle directly will save a file and copy the screenshot to the clipboard. - Taking a screenshot by Capture rectangular region will save a file and copy the screenshot to the clipboard. This is confusing behaviour to me! But, I'm not sure how to improve here. Would be interested to hear what others think. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
