Misleading "Use last region" in the configuration panel?

Description
Perhaps I miss a thing but I think that "Use last region" in the configuration panel can be misleading in some cases.
When it is checked and I launch "flameshot screen", it does not take a screenshot of the screen but only of the last region.
If it seems more intuitive to anyone, "flameshot screen" should be take a screenshot of the entire screen, even if "Use last region" is checked.
At least, I think that this counter-intuitive behavior (IMHO 😉) could be indicated in the documentation.
Steps to reproduce
- run
flameshot gui - check "Use last region"
- make other things that using flameshot
- launch
flameshot screen
flameshot takes a screen shot of the region not the entire screen as expected by the command line.

@mmahmoudian I think I agree that if the screen subcommand is used, "Use last region" should be ignored.
@borgmanJeremy
I agree with you both. The only subcommand that should take into account the "use last region" is the gui.
@jpggithub thanks for reporting this
