Description A. Mani 2015-05-17 18:56:51 UTC
print screen is not mapped properly to Ksnapshot. Pressing it has no effect.

ksnapshot works from Konsole/alt-F2

xev says :

    keys:  0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   8   0   0

After upgrading to Plasma Desktop, ksnapshot does also not work for me via the PRINT button.
ksnapshot works from the console, but not from the PRINT button.

* openSUSE Tumbleweed
* Plasma 5.4.1-1.1 (reported by YaST)

Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years and I will be closing this bug. Spectacle is the replacement for ksnapshot now. Please test again and file a new bug for Spectacle if you still have issues. Thank you!
