An Example, Without Borders Captured

# SUMMARY

Since > 6.0.0, but ⪅ 6.5.3, Spectacle hasn't captured window borders. It ceasing to capture them appeared to coincide with the blurriness and offset being remediated.

# STEPS TO REPRODUCE

Invoke `spectacle --activewindow`:

1. Invoke Spectacle.

2. Enable “Include window titlebar and borders”.

3. Select “Active window”.

# OBSERVED RESULT

Window borders are not captured (except for a few pixels at the corners, which, itself, appears to be erroneous), whereas the titlebar is.

# EXPECTED RESULT

The borders should be captured.
