After the last upgrade to Ubuntu 17.10, the screenshot feature of Shutter doesn't work properly any more.
When I press Selection
, or Desktop
to get a screenshot of the entire desktop, the image gets filled with large Shutter icons, like this:
I tried to purge
Shutter, then reinstalled, but the problem persists. I also tried to update Shutter, but I already have the last version.
It's worth mentioning that there's just an association between upgrading to Ubuntu 17.10 and the screenshot feature not working. I'm not sure if the upgrade has caused this, I only know the feature stopped working immediately after the upgrade.
What can I do to fix Shutter's screenshot feature?
I'd recommend
gnome-screenshot
if you can not get Shutter to work.I have used
gnome-screenshot
for some time and it works before and after the upgrade to Ubuntu 17.10. It does full screen, frames or "select area".Finally, have you tried uninstalling / re-installing? I know this is a "Windows-esque" solution, but, well, you never know.
