retested, overhauled description based on the latest findings (at least I no longer see the u8 lockup now)
** Summary changed: - gnome screen shot full lock up on zesty unity8 + gnome screen shot behaves strange on zesty unity8 ** Changed in: canonical-devices-system-image Status: Incomplete => New ** Changed in: gtk+3.0 (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New ** No longer affects: unity8 (Ubuntu) ** Also affects: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: gtk+3.0 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Description changed: - Feb 27 iso build of zesty, clean u8 exploration + Updated Mar 20 zesty, clean u8 exploration - gnome screenshot completely locks up the shell and eventually unity8 just restarts + gnome screenshot will seemingly quit, and will not capture the desired screen to repro: 1) launch screenshot app from the app drawer 2) make indications to take a screenshot ( i selected custom area to select) 3) "take screenshot" - result: complete lock up along with windowing oddity, frozen until unity8 res + result: application bail out, in the instance of "select area" case, it will take a screen shot in the instance of "full screen". + expected: get a screen shot of desired and the application should remain on screen. + + I suspect this is due to screenshot's reliance on X and our use of Xmir + not being completely worked out in terms of what the applications + perception of the screen vs it's own window is. ** Changed in: canonical-devices-system-image Assignee: kevin gunn (kgunn72) => Stephen M.
