Spectacle always uses “Full screen” area on first launch with PRTSC key on Wayland

Spectacle always uses “Full screen” area on first launch with print screen key when invoked by Wayland. (If this doesn’t occur to you, and you want a video, I’m happy to provide that. However, then it would probably be in the realm of http://bugs.kde.org rather than here.)

Is this the expected behaviour? Flameshot doesn’t appear to do so, and Spectacle doesn’t when invoked by X.

If you have this setting, it is expected that pressing PrintScreen (Launch Spectacle shortcut) would take a fullscreen screenshot on X11 and Wayland.

by default. I had completely forgotten that such a preference existed. Strange that the behaviour is different on X, then. Perhaps it’s actually buggy on X instead.
