Can you try using the master branch? I merged some fixes that might fix this.

I am also experiencing this bug on 20.04 and it is not fixed on master.

The bug exists at least all the way back to 0.8.0. Back in 0.6.0 the screenshot covered both screens, which is better.

I don't have access to Ubuntu machine anymore. But I cannot reproduce this on Manjaro with 3 monitors. I will un-assign myself.

@durka and @mokkin Would you please try this with newest version and confirm if it still is an issue.

Hello there, The same issue observed on Windows 7 64-bit. I use two monitors. If user made s screenshot the secondary screen, the capture will be placed on primary monitor. As a result, each new screenshot capture was always selected on primary monitor, even if previous one has been taken on second screen. It was expected that a new capture was placed on the same place: on secondary monitor. Please refer to the images below. Thanks for your time!

First image is a first screenshot capture. Second image described a bug itself, when user wanted to make a the next screenshot.

First try 1st step


Second try 2nd step
