Bug#985316: gnome-screenshot: can only take a snapshot of the top-left quarter of my screen

[Sandro Tosi]

Package: gnome-screenshot
Version: 3.38.0-1
Severity: normal

Hello,
this has been bugging me for forever, but it magically started working a few
days ago, only to be back again after a reboot.

For some reason, when i press Prt Sc (or run gnome-screenshot, or the hot keys)
only the top-left 1/4 of the screen is grabbed: so divide the screen in 4
quadrants (by halving each side) and only the top-left is grabbed.

Other programs work just fine, f.e.: gimp, or flameshot.

I would really prefer if we can get gnome-screenshot to work, so that i dont
need to rely on other tool but i can use what gnome provides already.

Regards,
Sandro
