Flameshot Version

Flameshot v12.1.0 (96c2c82e)
Compiled with Qt 5.15.2
winnt: 10.0.19045
windows: 10

Installation Type

Using the ready-made package from Github Releases

Operating System type and version

Windows 10 Pro | Version 22H2

Description

With a multi-monitor setup (possibly important: screens are different resolutions and not aligned), pinning an image to the Desktop will often pin it off-screen. I can confirm that the image pin is created by launching Task View and noting that the pinned image is still visible:

Steps to reproduce

Context: multiple monitors set up (probably important: with different dimensions and some negative X/Y bounds (detailed monitor configuration provided under System Information))

  1. Launch Flameshot using either the PrtScn keyboard shortcut or the Windows Taskbar Launcher icon (equivalent of flameshot gui)
  2. Select a region
  3. Click the Pin image to the Desktop icon
    Pinned image should not be visible on-screen
  4. Launch Task View (Win+Tab) and verify that a pinned window has in fact been created (just not visible)
    A "flameshot" window with the pinned image should appear in the list of windows open on the desktop
  5. Close Task View and note that the pinned image is still not visible; it's off-screen

Timestamps

Timestamp Description
00:00-00:07 Launching Flameshot and selecting region on DISPLAY1
00:07-00:07 Clicking "Pin image to Desktop"
00:07-00:09 The mouse freaks out that the pinned image is not visible (it's a bit of a drama queen)
Note: at this point, the image is pinned and has keyboard focus; it's simply below the bottom of DISPLAY1
00:09-00:13 Launch Task View to show that the screenshot is in fact open (it's below DISPLAY1 right now)
00:13-00:15 Clicking Win+Shift+→ to move the pinned image to DISPLAY4 (out of frame to the right) and then to DISPLAY5 (left in frame). This action for some reason gets the pinned image on-screen.
00:15-00:19 Moving pinned image around DISPLAY5 to demonstrate it is now on-screen
00:19-00:22 Moving pinned image around DISPLAY1, where it was originally selected/pinned, now finally on-screen 😄
