I didn't even know there is such feature... I always used Enter key for it |
|
Same here! But looks like some people did use it... |
|
wow :O I didn't even know that it was possible with "Enter" 🤣 From the first time I've used Shutter, I always used it with double click. |
|
I observe the same problem in version 0.97. |
Well, yes, since I didn't know about this feature, I missed it while reimplementing some parts of shutter for gtk3 |
|
I also used this feature heavily; Means you don't have to have a hand on the keyboard! Just double-click after you release the mouse button (to set the selection area). Is there an intention to reimplement this? As an aside, I've been using this gem of an application for several years - really appreciate those who've contributed to making it so great! ❤️ |
Sure. This is the main regression of 0.96 not fixed yet. |
|
Hi, just to point out that this function is needed when you take a screenshot of an RDP or virtual machine window, because the enter key get grabbed by the window itself. |
|
@mvivarelli I fear you would need 0.95 which still has most of the GTK2 dependencies. |
|
First of all thank's Michael for giving new life to this software that I really like. |

All the credits go to @DarthGandalf 😃 There are 0.95 packages in the Linuxuprising PPA but not for 20.04: https://launchpad.net/%7Elinuxuprising/+archive/ubuntu/shutter/+index?batch=75&memo=75&start=75 You can just download the 0.95 tarball from https://github.com/shutter-project/shutter/releases/tag/v0.95 and install it using "make install", it will uninstall cleanly with "make uninstall", so it's not that of an issue installing it past the package manager. |

It works
Thank's
Maurizio

You can just download the 0.95 tarball and install it using "make
install", it will uninstall cleanly with "make uninstall", so it's not
that of an issue installing it past the package manager.

Great, you're welcome! |

Might I add that when Shutter is configured to minimize to try on close, clicking the Shutter icon in the Gnome Dash does nothing. Previously, it would open the main window. It would be good to get functionality back as well. I'm on a fully patched Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS desktop. |
|
@ak2766 Please open a new issue about this problem. Though I fear that there won't be a fix any time soon since this seems to be the way how libappindicator works in Gnome (I might be wrong though)... |
|
Alright. No worries - will do so right away. |
|
Thank's Urs,
but I successfully installed 0.95 version following Michael directions
Can you forecast when the fix will be available?
Regards
Maurizio

In the mean time is it possible to reinstall 0.96 version in Ubuntu
20.04 or newer?
I searched but I wasn't able to do that
Thank's
Maurizio
As a workaround hit the VM's escape key before you hit enter... for vm-
ware it's CTRL-ALT then Enter....

I guess, as soon as @DarthGandalf, our only developer, finds time to deal with it. 😉 But it looks like the most pressing issue currently, as quite many people seem to be affected by it. |

ok
Thank's

Fix shutter-project#350 Fix shutter-project#359 (by not blocking the double-click signal anymore) TODO: upstream it to ImageView
Brief summary of issue
Just got the following via the website's contact form:
I assume that in versions prior to 0,96 the doubleclick was an alternative to the enter key for initiating the screenshot, but this alternative isn't present any more after the GTK3 merge.
Steps to reproduce the issue
Error output
Nothing specific.
Extra information, such as Shutter version, operating system and ideas for how to solve:
Shutter 0.97, most probably also 0.96.
