Bug Description

Shutter could take screenshots of both the active window and the desktop and allow you to choose, rather than having separate buttons and keybindings for each. That way, I'd just hit PrtSc and it would almost always do what I want it to do.

Could you please specify this? How would this use case look like in
detail?

I guess, the feature should be added to make a full-screen shot of the desktop and selected window, having other windows minimized.
Not sure though, if this can be implemented

Changed in shutter:

In detail:

I currently have PrtSc bound to "take a screenshot of my whole desktop" and Alt+PrtSc bound to "take a picture of just the current window". What I'd like is that PrtSc does *both* of these, and then adds both shots to Shutter.
