Ugh, sorry the title should be:

"Drop down terminal hides after focus is lost"

Steps to repro:

1. Launch qterminal
2. With the qterminal active, other a tool to take screenshot, like
Spectacle for example.
3. Qterminal loses focus

Due to this bug, I'm unable to select a 'rectangular area' for the
screenshot which includes contents in the terminal.

Hi Jay,

Thank you for reporting bug. I have tested qterminal with screengrab
on lxqt and I cannot reproduce this issue with qtermianl.

I donʼt know if itʼs been fixed in current newer version or issue with
KDE-Spectacle.

Could you please confirm if itʼs still exist or been fixed in newer
version?

And focus usually done and managed by window manager. Can you also test
it in other dekstop environment eg: lxqt?

Best regards,
