I've just attempted to take a screenshot of the right-click menu of a pdf file on my desktop, and the screenshot shortcuts <PrtSc> did not work despite only being a single keystroke.
Steps to reproduce: 1) Right click on a file or folder on your desktop 2) Press the key assigned to the 'Take screenshot' actions (this is <PrtSc> by default) without closing the right-click menu. 3) If this does indeed result in no screenshot being taken, close the right-click menu and verify that the screenshot app is working, which I did. ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: Confirmed => Triaged ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Importance: Undecided => High -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gtk+2.0 in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/623922 Title: Special keystrokes, including shortcuts and multimedia keys, cease to function when certain applications and menus are open -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
