> Two screens 4K external + 1080p internal

Can you post their arrangement and scale factors?
Comment 2 Noah Davis 2024-04-22 21:19:49 UTC
I can reproduce the issue, but I don't know what caused it.
Comment 3 Noah Davis 2024-04-22 21:21:13 UTC
it seems like having two screens and taking a multi-screen screenshot or rectangle screenshot is enough to reproduce the issue.
Comment 4 Noah Davis 2024-04-23 20:32:42 UTC
It seems that it's possible to take a screenshot of at least 1 screen on X11, but the request for a screenshot of the 2nd screen fails and times out after 25 seconds (the default timeout for DBus). If nobody can figure out how to fix this before May 9th, I'll have to go back to using the XCB screenshot platform plugin for X11 :/. That's a bit of a shame because it means the behavior on X11 and Wayland will no longer be consistent.
