Description IDontWantToTell 2024-11-04 09:28:29 UTC

If I want to make a screenshot and press the Print Screen Button, Spectacle opens up. When I then chose "rechteckiger Bereich" (squared area), for a brief time, the window minimizes, but at the time that the selection can be made, the window pops up again. This is really annoying, since I have to move it to another screen before I can take a screenshot, if the window was on the same monitor I wanted to take a screenshot of.

Does this happen with only a single screen?

Does it happen in a new clean user account with no customization?
