https://github.com/lxqt/lximage-qt/blob/master/src/application.cpp/#L105 Screenshot functionality will be removed at some point. https://github.com/lxqt/screengrab/issues/42

This said I wonder why I cannot find anywhere in the GUI the Take a screenshot (deprecated, please use screengrab instead). EDIT: it's not in the GUI: lximage-qt --help

Yes, please use Screengrab to take screenshots. lximage-qt is an image viewer.

lximage-qt --help deprecation noted and understood, thank you.

For reference, Capture Screenshot is in the File menu:

ScreenGrab

Thank you, however https://github.com/helloSystem/Utilities/issues/39#issuecomment-773532284 it's not ported to FreeBSD.

Yeah it's there until it will be removed. It doesn't make sense to add a warning there IMHO as far as it works.
