Spectacle window is no longer hidden during recording
Last modified: 2024-04-16 12:04:28 UTC
Since the update to Plasma6, the Spectacle window is no longer hidden during a recording. This means that the Spectacle window is always visible during a full-screen recording. When recording a rectangle, Spectacle must always be moved out of the area to be recorded. I'm still on X11 and using an AMD graphics card with amdgpu driver.
Did you test with a fresh user? Works here on latest Tumbleweed snapshot and X11.
Works as expected with a new user, thanks. Still the update changed something in the behavior. I reinstalled spectacle and also renamed ~/.config/spectaclerc, but problem remains. So doesn't seem to be a Spectacle problem.
Solution: Compositing was turned off in system settings.
