            Bug ID: 462781
           Summary: Rework "Capture current popup" mode
    Classification: Applications
           Product: Spectacle
           Version: 22.08.3
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: General
          Assignee: m...@baloneygeek.com
          Reporter: ash...@linuxcomp.ru
                CC: k...@david-redondo.de
  Target Milestone: ---

1) Improve documentation
Currently, the documentation in Help menu says: that "Capture the current popup
only" checkbox is available only for "Active Window" and "Window Under Cursor"
areas. But it does not say that it is also unavailable when in Wayland session.
I sent a letter to KDE Docs team about this.

2) Make this mode work in Wayland
Because it is now disabled in wayland

3) Move this capture mode from Options to Areas.
Because it is actually about choosing capture area.

4) Add ability to capture several menu levels as a one area
Currently it selects one of the levels only. It is not what user may want. For
example, see how Snagit (a WinOS commercial capture utility) works in this
video: https://youtu.be/dfvUd0leElI?t=57 You can see that there are two menu
levels opened, and at 1:03 shagit allows you to select an area of first menu
level (it is outlined with orange dashed line). Unfortunately not shown on the
video, it easily allows you to add second level to capture area, as well as
selecting second level menu area alone.
