Bug ID: 487739
Summary: [Feature request] [Regression] Make annotations
copy-and-pastable again
Classification: Applications
Product: Spectacle
Version: unspecified
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: General
Assignee: noaha...@gmail.com
Reporter: 1293660...@qq.com
CC: k...@david-redondo.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Currently, the annotations made in Spectacle are not copy-and-pastable, while I
remember they were indeed copy-and-pastable in a previous version. I cannot
remember the first version with this feature removed exactly, but it's highly
likely to be 23.04, which refactored Spectacle's user interface completely.
This feature is really useful when you want to do multiple annotations with
similar contents, especially text.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Make an arbitrary screenshot with Spectacle
2. Draw a rectangle using the annotation tool
3. Select the rectangle and press Ctrl+C, attempting to copy it
4. Press Ctrl+V
OBSERVED RESULT
The rectangle is not copy-and-pasted; when pressing Ctrl+C, the whole
screenshot is copied to the clipboard
EXPECTED RESULT
The rectangle is copy-and-pasted, as in a previous version
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux: 6.9.2-arch1-1
KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.2.0
Qt Version: 6.7.1
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Additionally, when you use the text tool to add some text, and then select them
and press Ctrl+C, both the text and the whole screenshot will be copied to the
clipboard, while I think the correct behavior is to copy the text only. I will
open a separate bug for that issue.
