Closing this report as Invalid, should be Won't Fix but it's not in the
list for some reason.
The feature was removed from upstream and it's not coming back (see
comment #9). The GUI was later updated to reflect this removal (comment
#10), but the updated GUI was not SRU-ed to 20.04 before 20.04 was end-
of-life. So, Won't Fix (in 20.04 - the updated GUI made its way into
20.10)

Title:
gnome-screenshot adds unnecessary transparent padding around window
screenshots
Status in gnome-screenshot package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
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?).
