Spectacle does not seem to open the previously selected folder when using the “Save as…“ functionality. It always revert back to the value of “lastImageSaveAsLocation“ inside “spectaclerc“. But the value is not changed for the “lastImageSaveAsLocation“ variable.
(This was actually a reason for another issue I had, “lastImageSaveAsLocation“ was previously pointing to a deleted folder and it created it everything i wanted to save a screenshot and open that folder.)
I would expect it (and i think this was the case previously) when I use the “Save as…“ function and select a folder that that folder would be used again the next time I use “Save as…“. Right now it always reverts to whatever is the value of “lastImageSaveAsLocation“.
Or is there some sort of variable I need to set in order to make this work like I intended?
$ cat ~/.config/spectaclerc
