Bug ID: 401451
Summary: Pressing the 'Super' (a.k.a. Windows) key while in
rectangle-select mode will lock the user in the
'select region' mode.
Product: Spectacle
Version: 18.08.3
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: grave
Priority: NOR
Component: General
Assignee: m...@baloneygeek.com
Reporter: irres.ge...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Pressing the 'Super' (a.k.a. Windows) key while in rectangle-select mode will
lock the user in the 'select region' mode. Pressing escape or enter will not
have an effect
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Press Print key
2. Select 'Rectangular region' -> Take a new screenshot
3. Press the Super key
OBSERVED RESULT
The program is locked in the region-selection mode. It remains responsive to
mouse actions, however keyboard inputs are ignored. Since neither escape not
enter terminate the selection process, the system is effectively locked. The
behavior is reproducable on my system. Fiddling with Ctrl+Alt+[F-key] seems to
crash X when returning to the X session the bug was produced in. I also
observed an uncalled system reboot.
EXPECTED RESULT
Anything from 'nothing' to 'the start menu opens'. Personally, I tried to take
a screenshot of my start menu.
