Scrivano only sometimes detects screenshots taking with Spectacle

Open myryk31415 opened this issue 3 months ago • 5 comments

When taking screenshots with Plasma's build-in screenshot tool Spectacle, the "paste" button remains greyed out most of the time. The screenshot shows up in the Clipboard widget every time but pasting to Scrivano only works sometimes. Also drag and drop does not work, but that might be unrelated

Edit: when the paste button is greyed out, CTRL + V does nothing either

Scrivano version: 0.21.5 (flatpak) Kde plasma version: 6.5.1 OS: Fedora 43

Hi thanks for reporting this. Can you reproduce this consistently? What's the frequency of this problem occuring?

On my machine it happens consistently, I have to make a screenshot at least twice for it to be detected.

Did some more testing, it always seems to take the second most recent screenshot. When I take the exact same screenshot twice, it still takes the old one, since kde does not save the duplicate to the clipboard again. As soon as I take a different screenshot it now pastes the one before.

Ok thanks. Indeed, I'm able to reproduce this also on Fedora 43 with Plasma 6.5.1 Interestingly, I couldn't reproduce this on Fedora 42, so something in the upgrade must have changed causing this issue. I'll investigate further and report back.

I'm unable to reproduce this with the latest version of Plasma (v 6.5.3). Is this still an issue for you?

Seems to be fixed, if it happens again I will reopen th3 issue :)
