pinning and copying stopped working for one-off mode flameshot gui

[mmahmoudian]

Flameshot Version

Flameshot v11.0.0 (54690d5)
Compiled with Qt 5.15.3

Installation Type

User repository (AUR)

Operating System type and version

5.10.105-1-MANJARO x86_64 GNU/Linux

Description

When flameshot gui is ran on one-off mode (i.e no background daemon), the pinning does not work, instead the tray icon goes invisible although it retains the space in the tray icon. The same thing happens with flameshot gui --pin.

The copying is affected, but the tray icon follow the same behavior as the pinning.

Note that if I run the daemon first and then run the flameshot gui, both pinning and copying work.

Steps to reproduce

1. pkill flameshot
2. flameshot gui
3. select a region
4. pin it
5. observe that nothing is pinned
6. observe the tray area

weird, can't reproduce
archlinux, latest commit 850260d, (Window manager only, DWM, no desktop environment)
also can't reproduce on linux mint (v11.0.0)
(single monitor 1080p)

[Infinidoge]

Interesting, it appears to work fine now, and the flameshot version doesn't appear to have changed.

[Infinidoge]

Nevermind, I retract the above (broken again), unsure if anything that particularly affects flameshot has changed.

[mmahmoudian]

This is a general case of #2496

I can't reproduce, although I have almost the same environment with you.

@mmahmoudian I believe this is resolved now. Can you confirm?

[mmahmoudian]

@borgmanJeremy yes, I cannot reproduce this anymore in Flameshot v12.1.0 (b736080)
