** Description changed: - Screenshot tool inserts corrupt border area. + 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. - This also applies to Ubuntu 20.04 daily build. + See attached screenshots, possibly with an external image viewer that + displays transparency as e.g. a checkered pattern, if your browser + doesn't. - See attached screenshot. + 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?).
