[opensuse-xfce] Print[Screen] key doesn't work
Hello. Print[Screen] key doesn't work as it should. It did before (probably a month and more ago). In keyboard settings I have: 'xfce4-screenshooter -f', and it works running in a terminal emulator. The first screenshot is made without any window, and the 'Print' key (mean:'xfce4-screenshooter -f') works as expected. http://susepaste.org/view/simple/70339590 Then I just open a program from a menu. 'Print' does a shot of an active window, not a desktop. http://susepaste.org/view/simple/67354991 % cat /etc/os-release NAME=openSUSE VERSION="20141208 (Tumbleweed)" VERSION_ID="20141208" PRETTY_NAME="openSUSE 20141208 (Tumbleweed) (x86_64)" ID=opensuse ANSI_COLOR="0;32" CPE_NAME="cpe:/o:opensuse:opensuse:20141208" BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugs.opensuse.org" HOME_URL="https://opensuse.org/" ID_LIKE="suse" All Xfce packages are installed from "X11:/xfce:/Next/openSUSE_Factory/". -- WBR Kyrill

Print[Screen] key doesn't work as it should. It did before (probably a month and more ago).
In keyboard settings I have: 'xfce4-screenshooter -f', and it works running in a terminal emulator.
The first screenshot is made without any window, and the 'Print' key (mean:'xfce4-screenshooter -f') works as expected. http://susepaste.org/view/simple/70339590

with the default keyboard shortcuts Alt-PrintScreen does that, i.e. runs xfce4-screenshooter -w to take a snapshot of the currently focused window. I cannot reproduce this, here it works as expected, PrintScreen make a snapshot of the whole screen and Alt-PrintScreen of the focused window, are you sure you've not accidentally pressed Alt (or something is interfering with keyboard input)? If that wasn't it, can you move ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts.xml aside (while NOT running Xfce) and try with the default keyboard shortcuts? There haven't been any code changes in xfce4-screenshooter or libxfce4ui (which provides the global keyboard shortcuts) in recent months, so if this is a genuine bug it is likely triggered by some other component, e.g. X, GTK, IM, so it will require some more investigation to isolate the problem. -- Guido Berhoerster -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-xfce+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-xfce+owner@opensuse.org

Hello, Guido. I've reset shortcuts to default. And it becomes working in both cases: print a fullscreen ('Print' key) and print the focused window ('Alt+Print' keys). Then I've changed 'Alt+Print' to 'LeftWin+Print' ('Super+Print' in the settings). And now, pressing 'LeftWin+Print', I've got a snapshot of the whole screen, not of the active window. -- WBR Kyrill

Hello, Guido.

Yeah, something isn't working right when using Super+Print, Print is somewhat special because it is also the magic SysRq key and this has caused trouble in the past (Alt-Print doesn't work with libxfce4ui < 4.11 at all, see https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7897). I'm currently very busy, would you mind filing a new upstream bug against libxfce4ui mentioning that this happens with libxfce4ui 4.11.1? -- Guido Berhoerster -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-xfce+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-xfce+owner@opensuse.org

It looks more suitable to this bug: https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10373 Isn't it? (I don't understand detailed English sometimes). -- WBR Kyrill

Yep, that looks like the issue you're seeing, i.e. the Super modifier being ignored. -- Guido Berhoerster -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-xfce+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-xfce+owner@opensuse.org

Good question, given Harald's comment #7 I'm somewhat reluctant to apply the patch. Could you comment on the bug mentioning the exact libxfce4ui and GTK version and that this is still reproducible? -- Guido Berhoerster -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-xfce+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-xfce+owner@opensuse.org
