Bug ID: 485988
Summary: [Feature request] Escape while selecting region
doesn't quit, but brings up main window
Classification: Applications
Product: Spectacle
Version: 24.02.2
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: General

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
There is an option to "Quit after manual Save or Copy". However, if you cancel
with Escape, it doesn't exit - you get the main window. This is (very slightly)
annoying when you go to take a screenshot and find you need to adjust the
window a little first, as you have to double-escape to get out.
There is already a way to take the whole screen (Enter), so there seems no need
for Escape to do the same.
I think it makes sense that this setting follows the "Quit after manual Save or
Copy" (i.e. "Quit after manual Save, Copy or Cancel". But if there's a use case
for getting Spectacle appearing after Escape that I'm not sensitive to, it
could be a separate config item?
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Configure: "Close on manual save copy"
2. Press "PrintSc" (or whatever trigger shortcut)
3. Optionally draw a rectangle.
4. Change your mind about whether you want a screenshot
5. Press Esc.
OBSERVED RESULT
See the Spectacle window pop up
EXPECTED RESULT
Dismiss Spectacle to adjust the window in question and try again.
