The work around it to kill the remote-viewer widows and restart it. Be nice if I didn't have to do that. This is a typically remote-viewer command: remote-viewer spice://127.0.0.1:5902 Many thanks, -T
This behaviour is not reproducible under Gimp's screen shot.
Any error message if launched from terminal? Is it possible to test this with 1.9.1? It uses gtk3 and the keyboard/mouse grab has been reworked. Also, please test with gnome-screenshot, it uses similar if not the same functions from gdk that might caused this bug.
Closing since the reporter didn't answer, reopen if still reproducible with 1.9.1+.
Hi Andre, I never got your request. I am now on # rpm -qa xfce4-screenshooter\* xfce4-screenshooter-1.9.1-1.fc27.x86_64 xfce4-screenshooter-plugin-1.9.1-1.fc27.x86_64 And I now can not reproduce the issue. Thank you! This was a pain-in-the-neck! Please close as Fixed.
It is back. And it has started to buggers up PDF Studio 2018. $ rpm -qa xfce4-scree\* xfce4-screenshooter-plugin-1.9.1-1.fc28.x86_64 xfce4-screenshooter-1.9.1-1.fc28.x86_64 With PDF Studio, I have to <ctrl><alt>f2> after a screen shot and kill PDF Studio. Then not run PDF Studio again until I reboot. GIMP's screen shot does not cause this issue. And the issue with remote-viewer is back. PDF Studio have a free unlimited trial, if you need to test it: https://www.qoppa.com/pdfstudio/
Please have a look at comment #2 and report back.

Hi Todd, I swear I tried, but I wasn't able to reproduce this bug, I'm not very skilled with libvirt and qemu, VirtualBox is more than enough for my needs. With regards to PDF Studio, sorry I prefer not to install it. Could you please provide instructions on how to spin up a qemu VM and connect remove-viewer?
Hi Andre, Not that I mind doing it, but giving you a tutorial on qemu-kvm is a pretty big undertaking. It would be much better for you just to install the PDF Studio demo. It is unlimited. (It writes "demo" or some such across any pdf you save). I have been using PDF Studio for years and adore it. It is a safe install. You can also just remove it after you are done testing. Their tech support will also bend over backwards to help you. I can help you with a lot of things too, as I have used it for so long. # /opt/pdfstudio2018/uninstall Since the problem drives me nuts under PDF Studio, I would prefer that you test against it first. If not, I will throw you something together on qemu-kvm Thank you for helping with this! -T Any luck with all the start up errors? If you install PDF Studio, open a drawing and play with the measurement/dimensioning utility. I have several of my constriction customers using it all the time on pdf blueprints.
Created attachment 7878 screenshot of pdf studio Ok, your plea touched me and I installed PDF Studio. It seems a regular Swing-based application, I experienced no problem taking screenshots of it (see attachment). Questions: Is there any steps to reproduce or just a blank document may cause you the issue? An entire screen or active window screenshot also cause the issue? What exactly happens to PDF Studio that you cannot use it until reboot? Can you try another Swing-based app (e.g. jd-gui)? Launch xfce4-screenshooter from terminal and try to take a screenshot of something else, the warnings from comment #7 also appear? What about gnome-screenshot?

What about > gnome-screenshot? Hi Andrea, The attachment you posted showed nothing inside the box, so I will take your word on it. I have done two major dnf upgrades since posting this, and I can long longer reproduce the issue either. So, it was probably the OS at fault. Thank you for the assistance with this! -T
I have been using this most of hte day. it nailed me once in qemu-kvm remote-viewer, but it would not reproduce itself.
