Bug ID: 503824
Summary: Taking a screenshot with Night Light enabled causes
incorrect colors
Classification: Applications
Product: Spectacle
Version: 6.3.2
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: General
Assignee: noaha...@gmail.com
Reporter: gaming.sx...@aleeas.com
CC: k...@david-redondo.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Taking a screenshot with Night Light enabled causes incorrect colors in the
resulting screenshot.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Turn on Night Light. Make sure it's turned up really strong so the effect is
noticeable.
2. Take a screenshot. Use Fullscreen screenshot or Rectangular region mode.
(Choosing a specific window to capture does not cause the bug; the resulting
screenshot in that case will look normal)
3. Turn off Night Light.
OBSERVED RESULT
The resulting screen capture has incorrect, warped colors. Red and yellowish
shades look pale. It seems like Spectacle is trying to overcompensate for the
color distortion that Night Light causes.
EXPECTED RESULT
I expected that the screenshot colors would look normal, as though you didn't
even have Night Light on when you took them.
