Well, I did that. But the problem persists. I didn’t take that screenshot of the KDE website. It just appeared.
Is there another os or desktop environment installed on this system?
Yes, OpenSuse Tumbleweed with KDE Plasma (post #5). Spectacle works very well there.
As I said before. Add a new user and have a look if the problem persists.
Alternatively rename the folder ~/.config to /.config.old and have a look if the issue is resolved.
Preferably log out before renaming the folder. If the issue is resolved, just copy your needed configs from /.config.old to /.config

I see you have Intel Iris Graphics. What does inxi -Ga show?
Edit: Maybe try system settings compositor vsync off
$ inxi -Ga

With system settings compositor vsync off
It looks like it’s loading the correct modules for the Intel Iris. Does the vsync off make any difference?
Also did you try as @Trekkie00 suggested adding another user and then boot up to that new user and see and also his alternative suggestion?
Are you sharing a home partition with fedora and EndeavourOS?
No, I don’t.
I have OpenSuse Tumbleweed KDE, not Fedora.
Sorry then opensuse and endeavour
I’ve been reading the KDE web site, and the Arch forums too. Can’t find a solution for this. I need a screenshot sometimes for work, and as GIMP is doing the job, I can forget Spectacle. Usually the hand goes to the key to invoke screenshot, and that’s the problem. I might as well uninstall Spectacle to get used to not having it. But, what I worry is, maybe there’s some problem with EOS KDE. So, I informed.
Since it only seems to impact you, that seems unlikely.
Have you tried creating a new user and testing there as suggested above?

Retun:
inxi -Fxxxza --no-host
sudo parted -l That is the letter l not a #1
I use EndeavourOS KDE and it’s never happened to me. Not seen any issues about this.

Yes, I did. To no avail. Spectacle gets stuck. Installed Flameshot too, and that too has the same problem.

Did you use sudo parted -l? This output looks different?
Edit: Okay i guess it’s the same. It just looks so weird outside the terminal. 
Now return:
sudo lsblk -o name,mountpoint,label,size,uuid
