Title:
gnome-screenshot adds unnecessary transparent padding around window
screenshots
Status in gnome-screenshot package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
When taking a window screenshot with gnome-screenshot in 19.10 and
20.04, a 20 to 25 pixel wide area of transparent padding (alpha) is
added around the screenshot.
See attached screenshots, possibly with an external image viewer that
displays transparency as e.g. a checkered pattern, if your browser
doesn't.
The expected behavior is that of 18.04:
* If a border effect is selected, the smallest necessary amount of
transparent padding is added to accommodate the effect.
* If no border effect is selected, no transparent padding is added (is
there even a need for an alpha channel in this case?).
