If someone wants to use the workaround but keep it working in X11 as well, I suggest: QT_QPA_PLATFORM="wayland;xcb" spectacle Or as an argument: spectacle -platform 'wayland;xcb' The argument should be suitable for .desktop files. However, changing org.kde.spectacle.desktop gets kwin angry: spectacle[16738]: Error calling KWin DBus interface: "org.kde.kwin.Screenshot.Error.NoAuthorized" "The process is not authorized to take a screenshot" -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
