flameshot v14 with X11 mate-desktop multi-monitor support broken, always captures from one/same monitor only
Flameshot Version
flameshot-14.0.0-1.fc44.x86_64
Installation Type
Linux, MacOS, or Windows Package manager (apt, pacman, eopkg, choco, brew, ...)
Operating System type and version
Fedora 44
Description
I'm using Fedora 44 with X11 mate-desktop. I have two separate displays/monitors.
I've enabled the "Use legacy X11 screenshot method" in flameshot settings.
flameshot "Select Screen" shows both monitors (HDMI-2 and HDMI-3), but no matter which monitor I select, the actual capture region selection tool always goes to the same single monitor, eg. I'm only able to capture screenshots from one single monitor, the other monitor is "out of reach" with flameshot.
With earlier flameshot versions (in Fedora 42) capturing from both of the monitors was working OK.
Steps to reproduce
- run Flameshot gui
- open Flameshot settings and enable "Use legacy X11 screenshot method".
- right-click the Flameshot icon, select "Take Screenshot"
- Flameshot monitor selector appears, choose "Monitor 1 (HDMI-2)"
- Flameshot screenshot region selection tool opens on "Monitor 2 (HDMI-3)" instead, not on the selected monitor.
- Thus I'm unable to capture screenshots from Monitor 1.
