Suggested title: Partial screenshot lacks action menu (no Share/Edit/Delete) while full screenshot shows it

  • /e/OS version: 3.1.4-t and previous builds
  • Device model(s): beyond2lte
  • Impacted Application: System UI / Screenshot
  • Affected application/URL: n/a
  • Browser/client and version: n/a

Summary

Action menu (Share / Edit / Delete) does not appear after taking a partial screenshot. It appears for a few seconds after a full screenshot.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open any screen.
  2. Short-press Volume Down + Power to trigger partial screenshot, select an area, confirm.
  3. Observe the result.

Actual result

No action menu is offered for the partial screenshot result.

Expected result

The same action menu shown after full screenshots should appear for partial screenshots: Preview and Share / Edit / Delete.

Impact

Medium. Slows sharing/editing workflow and creates inconsistency with full screenshots.

Workarounds

Open the image from Gallery/Files to share or edit. Or take a full screenshot and crop.
