In both cases, I open a file named "/home/jwill/Documents/WikiSpecies/Animalia_Plantae_N", where N is 8 for my online machine (bad) and was 7 for the offline (OK) display. Interestingly, I can't seem to run shutter as root: After "sudo su root", my nonroot password, and %shutter, I get "No protocol specified Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0 at /snap/shutter/27/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.22/Gtk2.pm line 126." I tried various fixes, but I can't run shutter as root. I don't know my "su root" password without "sudo" first. After "sudo su root", if I run "su root" and then "shutter", I get: "/root/snap/shutter/27/Desktop was removed, reassigning DESKTOP to homedir No protocol specified Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0 at /snap/shutter/27/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.22/Gtk2.pm line 126." So, I can't run shutter as root, I think, and I have only "jwill@jwill-Inspiron-3847" as a login that runs shutter. When I run it as jwill, I get a long message, but it starts. I am attaching the message (after killing shutter). I agree that the online machine problem is not originating in shutter -- it is caused somewhere else but consistently occurs apparently only when shutter is used. Is there some way of running shutter in a "sandbox" mode? -- John Michael Williams jwill1000...@gmail.com ** Attachment added: "Shutter_Messages.jmw" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1934542/+attachment/5509171/+files/Shutter_Messages.jmw -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1934542 Title: Open File yields colorless document list To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/shutter/+bug/1934542/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I then installed shutter again -- same problem of colorless shutter icons. However, if I viewed my file list with the GNOME "Files" utility, (GNOME v. 3.36.3-stable) or with Okular, the icons are colored. So, I have a shutter problem of unknown origin.

Incidentally, I just installed Shutter on my OFFLINE machine, which runs Ubuntu and Windows 7: I get the expected Shutter colored icons (single violet color) and not the colorless icons (which I sent you) of my ONLINE Ubuntu machine.

Hi. Have you been able to duplicate the colorless display? If not, just tell me what to do when you want to test something.
