Video of the bug
SUMMARY
If you draw a long stroke or line with spectacle (holding down the left mouse
button) over a screenshot for long enough, Spectacle will start lagging more
and more, and it can go up to a complete freeze of the application.
Tested on two different PC's, one with an R7 5800x3D and one with an
i9-13950HX, strangely the lag is MUCH worse on the AMD system, while on the
intel one, it still happens but only after a much longer stroke.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Take a screenshot with Spectacle
2. Select the standard Pencil
3. Draw a long stroke / scribble without lifting the left click
OBSERVED RESULT
Intense lag even after relatively small drawing
EXPECTED RESULT
No lag at all / not that much lag only after a couple of lines
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows:
macOS:
(available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a terminal window)
Linux/KDE Plasma:
KDE Plasma Version:
KDE Frameworks Version:
Qt Version:
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
It seems to start lagging WAY faster on my AMD system than my intel one.
