2020-05-05 22:35:44 Naël summary screenshot tool inserts corrupt border area gnome-screenshot adds unnecessary transparent padding around window screenshots
2020-05-05 22:44:34 Naël description Screenshot tool inserts corrupt border area. This also applies to Ubuntu 20.04 daily build. See attached screenshot. ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 19.10 Package: gnome-screenshot 3.33.90-1ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.3.0-40.32-generic 5.3.18 Uname: Linux 5.3.0-40-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset nvidia ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu8.4 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Mon Feb 24 14:45:28 2020 ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/gnome-screenshot InstallationDate: Installed on 2019-10-20 (127 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 19.10 "Eoan Ermine" - Release amd64 (20191014) ProcEnviron: SHELL=/bin/bash XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SourcePackage: gnome-screenshot UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) When taking a window screenshot with gnome-screenshot in 19.10 and 20.04, a 20 to 25 pixel wide area of transparent padding (alpha) is added around the screenshot. See attached screenshots, possibly with an external image viewer that displays transparency as e.g. a checkered pattern, if your browser doesn't. The expected behavior is that of 18.04: * If a border effect is selected, the smallest necessary amount of transparent padding is added to accommodate the effect. * If no border effect is selected, no transparent padding is added (is there even a need for an alpha channel in this case?).
