"import" command doesn't allow AnyDesk or Teamviewer to control computer.

Operating system

Linux

Operating system, version and so on

Debian 11

Description

By using AnyDesk or Teamviewer, when I run "magick import poop.jpg", I can't control any more the computer. I can't use mouse to select the area and there is no key that cancel the operation. So... I need a presence to make that area selection to continue using that computer.

Explanation: I have a hotkey that runs "magick import" and some other commands to copy that captured area to clipboard. I use this every time. Sometimes, I use my computer from my girlfriend house. And it happened to me several times that I press that hotkey... and I need to call somebody to go to my computer to complete the action, for me to continue using the computer.

Steps to Reproduce

• Run AnyDesk or Teamviewer to control a computer.
• Run "magick import file.jpg" in that computer.
• Cry.

By default, import requires an interactive terminal where the operator defines the area of the screen to import with mouse clicks. It locks the X11 server until the mouse is clicked. You can prevent user interaction by defining the area of screen or a specific windows to capture with command-line parameters. With CLI parameters, the X11 screen is not locked and no user interaction is required to capture the screen or window.

Any suggestion to get the area with the mouse and pass them to CLI parameters? I think that other programs that get position of the mouse maybe also locks X11 server... :/
