Public bug reported:
Please forgive me if this has already been reported. I looked and
couldn't find it. Thanks in advance. Loving Ubuntu 16.04!
I was taking a screenshot of a selected area on a Chrome window
displaying Google Maps. The resulting image file included the orange
box that I drug (dragged?) to select the spot that I wanted to capture.
Steps to recreate:
1) Open Chrome and Navigate to Google Maps (I clicked the "earth" box to get
satellite photos).
2) Open the gnome-screenshot tool and pick "select area to grab"
3) Click "Take Screenshot"
4) Drag a box around the portion of the Google Maps window you'd like to
screenshot.
5) Save the image.
6) View the resulting saved image has the orange box over the image you wanted.
I would not expect the orange selection box to be part of the image.
Description: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
Release: 16.04
I've worked around this using Gimp but I'd rather use the small/fast
Screenshot tool.
** Affects: gnome-screenshot (Ubuntu)
