Screenshot write file delayed by one sequence


Describe the bug

I have two steps action:

  1. Capture Screenshot (Configurable) - selection only, capture to clipboard only
  2. Save clipboard to file where path is partially dependent on BTT persistent variable

The screenshot is taken but file write is delayed to moment when next screenshit is initiated (I see that new file in the Finder is created when I press trigger keyboard sequence again). The result file has image from screenshot previously captured.


Screenshots


Device information:

  • Type of Mac: MacBook Air M1 2020
  • macOS version: Sequoia 15.3.2
  • BetterTouchTool version: 5.271

can you try whether adding the "Wait for clipboard content changes" action inbetween makes a difference?

Yes it resolved the problem. I've based on another topic:
Using BTT to rename screenshots on the fly (build in macOS)?

Thanks
