https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=811774 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=811774#c0 Summary: Screenshot tool only captures the desktop background Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 12.3 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: schuetzm@gmx.net QAContact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:19.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/19.0 When I try to take a screen shot, be it by pressing the print key, gnome-screenshot or even from inside GIMP, only the desktop background is captured, but not any windows. This happens regardless whether I'm taking a full screen snapshot, a snapshot of a single window, or selecting an area. I'm not sure about the correct component to choose here. I'm actually using Cinnamon, so I'm don't know whether it also happens in GNOME proper. It could also be an X11 bug.

So the steps for reproduction would be:
1. Start Cinnamon (GNOME ?). 2. Run "gnome-screenshot -i". 3. Select an area on the screen. 4. Run "gnome-screenshot -i" again. 5. Select a different area. => Bug occurs here.

It works in gnome in my test. gnome-screenshot will run as a unique process whether you start it multiple times.
Ok, this explains why it worked after a restart. Anyway, I cannot reproduce it anymore in Cinnamon 1.8.8 either, so I guess it is fixed. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
