Bug ID: 525561
Summary: In rectangular region mode, "Accept" and "Save"
buttons do the same thing
Classification: Applications
Product: Spectacle
Version First git-master
Reported In:
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: General

Target Milestone: ---
DESCRIPTION
Both buttons save a file into my screenshot directory. The presence of both
these buttons is confusing: if there's a "Save" button, then what would
"Accept" even do?
Could the UI be more explicit about which action will ultimately be performed
when pressing "Accept"? Is it perhaps meant to open the regular window with the
selected rectangle as content? Or should one button (just "Save", for its
explicitness) be enough?
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enter rectangular region screenshot mode.
2. Select a rectangular region.
3. Stare at the toolbar and try to make sense of it.
OBSERVED RESULT
"Accept" and "Save" both exist and do the same thing, while not being clear in
advance what action the former will perform.
EXPECTED RESULT
I dunno? Surely there was some intention behind having a second button, but I
don't know what it is.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System (available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a
terminal window):
KDE Plasma Version: git master a few days before 6.8 Beta 1 (a.k.a. 6.7.90)
KDE Frameworks Version: also git master
Qt Version: 6.11.2-3
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The confusion between both buttons is especially striking when "Save" has its
text label attached, after selecting a smaller rectangle than the entire
screen. At the initial full-screen selection toolbar, "Save" is just an icon
button, which hides the conflict, but doesn't make it disappear.
