I can see this behavior in Ubuntu 19.10 (gnome-screenshot 3.33.90): * If you press PrintScreen or Shift+PrintScreen then screenshot is saved as a file to the folder Pictures instead of showing gnome-screenshot dialog (see also bug 927952). The same behavior occurs if you run "gnome-screenshot" from command line. * Ctrl + Shift + PrintScreen allows saving of grabbed area to clipboard and it works well (pasting verified in KolourPaint)
* If you open the gnome-screenshot dialog manually, either using "Super key => Type screenshot" or by "gnome-screenshot -i" then: ----------------- * The action "Grab the whole screen => Take screenshot => Copy to clipboard" doesn't add anything into clipboard (verified in KolourPaint) - it's a bug, I guess it's the same issue as bug 1506847 * The actions "Grab the current window => Take screenshot => Copy to clipboard" and "Select area to grab => Take screenshot => Copy to clipboard" work well - the screenshot is copied into clipboard * Saving into file using the button "Save" works well in all above cases -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-screenshot in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1506847 Title: gnome-screenshot doesn't put the screenshot in clipboard Status in gnome-screenshot package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I'm on Ubuntu 14.04 and I've noticed that gnome-screenshot doesn't work as it used to a couple of weeks ago, so probably an update broke it. When I take a snapshot (Print Screen or Shift+Print Screen), I get the gnome-screenshot dialog with the options "Copy to clipboard" and "Save file". Saving file works, but copy to clipboard an pasting to another application doesn't. Copy and paste of images does work in general (e.g. by using the "Copy image" option in the browser - I can paste this image to another program), so this seems to be solely related to gnome-screenshot.
