Hey,
i was just trying to make a screenshot of my gnome menu, but somehow the
screenhot window simply won`t appear when i press the "Print Screen" button
on my keyboard. it`s appearing just fine on other places unless i clicked a
menu (so that the menu is expanded)
bug? or normal behavior?
Thanx,
Mark.

Normal. Menus grab the keyboard when they are shown. You can use other
tools which allow you to grab a screenshot after a timout, e.g. Gimp.

Or run gnome-screenshot with -d <seconds> to run it with a delay.

1.) Or go to Applications > Accessories > Take Screenshot > right click
and use either add to panel or add to desktop. The panel may make screen
shots easier for menus.

gnome-screenshot --delay=3
The idea is to find a long enough delay so that you can click your new
screenshot icon and then navigate the menus for the capture. The reason
for the delay is noted by Matthias Clasen above.

Greg

Wow, that's a complicated way for doing just a
$ sleep 3; import -window root shot.png

It's a bug. You should be able to take a screenshot irrespecive of
whether the menus are open. Bugzilla it, and use the workarounds in the
meantime.
