Shutter does not work in Wayland

Confirmed, though I'm not sure whether it's the Shutter logo I'm seeing.

This is related to the security in Wayland, which prevents applications from seeing other application's viewports.

Gnome-screenshot manages, so it must be possible in some way. I'm just not sure what API is being used.

Same problem here with ubuntu GNOME 16.10. It's possible to take screenshots, but they just show some strange pixel-pictures...
Shutter works fine when not logging in with wayland.

Another +1 from me. I see this on Arch with xf86-video-nouveau driver running Gnome 3.22.

+1. I'm seeing this issue on fedora 25, with Wayland

Same here, Gnome on Arch.

..on wayland, by the way...

wayland...Gnome 3.22 Fedora 25 ...

shutter doesn't work

Same here

+1. Fedora 24 and Fedora 25 with Wayland and Shutter. Only re-login with Xorg makes it work again.

See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/761737

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

mario-kemper, do you plan to port Shutter to support the native DBUS/Wayland APIs in the future?

Given the recent news of Unity, made the switch to GNOME/Wayland. I use Shutter all the time, but it only shows a black screen when I try to take a screenshot under Wayland. Is support planned?

Development looks dead, I don't think, anything will happen unless somebody jumps in and resumes the development...

Ok, now in Ubuntu 17.10 using Wayland. Shutter tries to take a screenshot but only got the Shutter icon distorted.

I found some shortcuts useful in gnome-screenshot, not a workaround but still useful.
Actually I am seeing for the first time the gnome shortcuts as well:

PrtSc = Capture screen
Alt+PrtSc = Capture Active App/Window
Shift+PrtSc = Capture Area

I hope that someone fix this bug. BTW KDE guys fixed (partially) this problem in Spectacle

In Ubuntu 17.10, shutter is unusable. Until this is fixed, is there an alternative that does work in wayland?

gnome-screenshot works

Can it edit and upload screenshots?

Not fully featured as shutter. It can just take screenshots, it's an alternative to the most basic feature of shutter, screenshot and saving to file (desktop, window, area,...)

ps. Sorry for my simplistic ressponse

Maybe you need to run first the 'xhost' script:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/synaptic/+bug/1712089/comments/8

The easiest way in gnome-shell is pressing the print screen button for a full screen shot, or SHIFT+Print Screen button to select a region.

Shutter is a lot more than a simple screenshot-application.

It allows you to immediately ftp your screenshot to a websever and then it copies the url of that screenshot into your clipboard (automatically) so you can can quickly share screenshots with other people via chat/email/etc with simple ctrl-v paste.

Additionally, it allow you to edit a screenshot; you can draw arrow to potions of the image you want to emphasize before collaboration.

I use it so frequently, and it is such a time saver to alternative methods of accomplishing these needs, that must downgrade to Ubuntu 16.04.3 until it works in Ubuntu 17.10, or until there is an alternative that truly compares.

Ubuntu 17.10 is looking great, but I have to have sophisticated applications like shutter, autokey-gtk, or I simply can't upgrade. Ubuntu is not a toy for me. I use it for work and productivity.

I take the screenshot with the gnome utility, copy the image then paste it
in shutter. Painful but only workaround I've found.

Lonnie, you can still use Ubuntu 17.10. On the login screen, after selecting your name, click the gear button to log in to 'Ubuntu on Xorg'. That will also work in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

I don't see a clear solution that's not a workaround in that bug topic

May be the patch sets submitted for GParted are meant. But they tackle the root access problem while Shutter struggles with screen capture, afaik these things are not related.

I'm adding an attachment with an example of what shutter captures. Also, output when running from the command line:

$ shutter
WARNING: gnome-web-photo is missing --> screenshots of websites will be disabled!

I get exactly the same result as John Manko, only since upgrading to 17.10 from 17.04.
Interestingly, it doesn't happen on all monitor configurations. It happens at work where i have dual HP LA2405x monitors, but works correctly at home with a single monitor (same laptop in both cases).

Let me know if I can offer information that might help.

So the workaround is to not use Wayland... :(

Yeah, see the bug title. Shutter has not been actively maintained and
Wayland doesn't offer the same way of capturing an images - if there are
ways at all.

I'll fix this eventually.

I think the easiest solution is to detect if GNOME is being used and it so, check for gnome-screenshot. Then, grab screenshots via gnome-screenshot.

I guess it's not easy to implement the capture code from gnome-screenshot into shutter?

It should be feasible. I mean, gnome-screenshot is one thing, but there's also Google's screen sharing feature, available in Hangouts which works very well in Wayland and, to my knowledge, does not require root access or anything.

I understand it's not an easy task in any way. I'd be glad to help though.

Can't Shutter use XWayland?

From my understanding Firefox is running X under Wayland for compatibility reasons.

Maybe Shutter can do the same?

That would be great.

No, it needs to be able to screenshot the Wayland display

Look into the API that GNOME Shell provides for screenshots (which is what gnome-screenshot uses).

Shutter has not been maintained for years and uses obsolete libraries. On Debian side, we are considering removing shutter from Debian despite its usefulness and popularity. See https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=870418#54

So, jerther, feel free to step in. I don't think anyone will complain if shutter gets a new active maintainer.

Dod, on behalf of Debian-perl team

That sounds pretty disappointing that you are willing to negatively impact
a lot of users for a completely arbitrary reason as far as the end user is
concerned. The tool isn't great anymore and doesn't work on all setups, but
there are still ways to make it work and removing those ways will not add
any value whatsoever.

A free alternative for linuxers: https://lightscreen.com.ar/

The point is that this project needs a lot of work, and although myself and some other people were finally able to get access to the repo from the original developer, this project is not actively maintained. Some patches have been merged in, but there is no active development at this point. If I had more time, I'd love to bring everything up the speed, but I'm just very busy. I'd welcome patches.

It turns out I have some time to work on this today. What needs to be resolved to keep this in Debian's repo? Wayland support and ____?

In my opinion Wayland support is the most urgent issue right now. Further issues worth attention but much less urgent: Second instance crashes on newer perl versions, Dropbox upload needs porting to new API.

P.S.: Looking at the bug linked by domi-dumont, GVFS dependency seems to be another issue: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=870418#54

P.P.S.: Would be great if you could actually revive Shutter, it seems to be still quite popular despite of its age and lack of development.

> A free alternative for linuxers: https://lightscreen.com.ar/

Correct me but I don't think this one supports Wayland, does it?

If you does not want to use the xhost script for 'unlocking' the wayland restriction, then only open a X session.

Unfotunately there is no manual how to install it on linux...

If you refer to lightscreen, it is already on github: https://github.com/ckaiser/Lightscreen If you mean Shutter, it is free software, so anybody is free to fork it and put the code anywhere. The only downside is that distro package maintainers will need some time to realize that the development is going on somewhere else, but I think, this is a solvable problem.

I get exactly the same result as John Manko, only since upgrading to 17.10 from 17.04.

In addition to not working in Wayland, major shutter-features are starting to die in Ubuntu 18.04 (to be release this Thursday 2018-04-26). It seems that (upstream) debian has too soon removed the libgoo-canvas-perl package which allows quick and simple editing of screen-shots (via right-click > edit, in Shutter):

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libgoo-canvas-perl/+bug/1765726

Ubuntu 18.04 runs GNOME3-Xorg by default, so it is a shame that some of shutter's features are dying due to packages that were too soon removed from the repository. Ubuntu 18.04 is a long term support release that will always be GNOME3 Xorg by default. I see no reason way shutter should not be able to work just as well in 18.04 as it did in 16.04, since both use Xorg by default.

So, to me, more urgent than Wayland support, is to re-include the packages that worked fine under Xorg, so that users can upgrade from 16.04 to 18.04 without losing major features (unnecessarily) in shutter.

Would like to mention that under Ubuntu 18.04 LTS you would also see a black screen, especially if you apply that workaround (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libgoo-canvas-perl/+bug/1765726/comments/45) in order to get editing to work... At the same time e.g. under Linux Mint 19 MATE (Ubuntu 18.04 LTS) all worked as expected.

The only workaround for now is to switch to the Xorg session (which can be done in the login screen).

Shutter doesn't work on Fedora 29 (wayland). When I take a screenshot, shutter just show shutter's icon with a lot of repetitions.

Same issue on ubuntu 18.04.
Any news ?

Not yet - need someone to step up to do the work.

A workaround, until shutter is fixed might be this flameshot snap package:
https://snapcraft.io/flameshot-app

You would install it like this:
sudo snap install flameshot-app

Also, I'm not aware of a snap packages for shutter itself, but I did come across this:
https://launchpad.net/shutter/+snaps

That may be a snap package for shutter, but I have no clue how you would install it. I tried this:
 sudo snap install shutter
 error: snap "shutter" not found

No luck.

As far as I can see all of the Shutter snaps which are available at https://launchpad.net/shutter/+snaps failed to build, so it's no surprise that Shutter cannot be installed using snap...

Bonjour,

Merci pour votre message.
Je suis absent jusqu'au mardi 9 juillet, je prend bonne note de votre courriel et vous répondrai dès mon retour dans les plus brefs délais.

Meilleures salutations.

I love shutter, but it does not work in my Ubuntu 20.04 LTS on Wayland... still does on the other side (based on X11). Is there any hope to get it fixed?
Would hate to have to change the best screenshot tool I have ever used!

@Georg well good luck with finding another tool that works in Wayland... The "GNOME screenshot" tool is pretty much the only one that works. I'd like to be proven wrong though.

So I take my screenshots with that tool, copy the image and paste it in Shutter. Annoying but works...

I would recommend using ksnip, it works and is very good.

All the best
