Description Alejandro Vargas 2021-05-11 08:12:36 UTC
When trying to take a shot of a rectangular area of screen, wrong coordinates are selected if the monitor is not alligned multiscreen desktop


Example screen distribution

                   +------------------+
                   |                  |   
                   |      top         |
+------------------+                  |
|                  |                  |
|      left        |-------------+----+
|                  |             |
|                  |   laptop    |
+------------------+   screen    |
                   |             |
                   +-------------+

Choose rectangular area capture
Select from left monitor which is not aligned with others

Result: wrong part of the screen is captured. 
It's only working ok when top and left monitors are aligned.

Capturing in top and laptop monitors are ok.
In previous versions of spectacle it worked ok.

Spectacle 5.20.4

Tried Spectacle 21.07 and it worked OK.

Excellent! A lot of work has gone into this kind of thing, so it's not big surprise to hear that. :)
