** 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?).
