In KDE Plasma 6.6 Spectacle can read texts from screenshots, a new on-screen keybord is available for testing, a first-time wizard was added, current theme can be saved as a new global theme, emoji selector got a new easier skin tone selection, you can now connect to a Wi-Fi network via a QR code, application sound volume can be changed by scrolling over a taskbar button via mouse, and there is much more.

been waiting on the global theme thing so I can save my weird setup and not have to rebuild it every time I switch distros (and I need a reinstall because I did something the computer said not to and have weird issues now)

    For some reason it says that I don't have necessary tesseract dependencies on Fedora, even though I do 😩

    I needed to install them (after wondering too long why it didnt work)         

    But i hope one of the next updates will fix it for you when you already have it

    What exactly did you need to install? My system says I have tesseract and the language pack installed, but spectacle doesn't seem to see it. I'm thinking it isn't the right package.

    Scrolling while hovering over taskbar icons to control that app's volume? The future is now!

    Spectacle can read texts from screenshots

    I use Spectacle to take screen shots. I wish it wasn't so incredibly slow.
