Nothing happens after clicking Take Screenshot

It worked well on Ubuntu 21.10. After upgrade to 22.04 it did not work. I uninstalled completely flameshot and after that tried to install via apt-get and via snap and via deb-package from github. And any of these ways does not work.

[metaer]

Does flameshot write any error logs, which I could attach?

[metaer]

I've tried to run command flameshot gui via terminal also.
Here is output:

Warning: Ignoring XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland on Gnome. Use QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland to run on Wayland anyway.

Switching xdg session type from Wayland to x11 helped. But still does not work with Wayland.

[metaer]

I want to donate crypto for flamehot development. Can I do that? I need this software so much.

[metaer]

Switching xdg session type from Wayland to x11 helped

But "copy to clipboard" feature does not work with x11

[metaer]

Running flameshot command via terminal (with x11) produces these errors:

Qt: Session management error: Could not open network socket

But "copy to clipboard" feature does not work with x11

It works if I run flameshot command first and then run flameshot gui in new terminal tab, not cancelling flameshot command in the first terminal tab.

Why do I use terminal command? Because it is very convenient to have custom shortcut in OS, which runs flameshot gui

[metaer]

But "copy to clipboard" feature does not work with x11

Problem has gone after setting checkbox "Launch at startup" on in Configurration window and switching on flameshot in Startup Application Preferences.

For wayland please make sure you have installed xdg-desktop-portal-gnome:

sudo apt install xdg-desktop-portal-gnome
It can be a duplicate of #2199

For donation, read these:

• Donation support #1235

• https://flameshot.org/donate/

[metaer]

For wayland please make sure you have installed xdg-desktop-portal-gnome

Thank you, I'll try it later

[mmahmoudian]

@metaer please let us know if the issue was resolved with installing xdg-portal

[metaer]

Ok

[metaer]

sudo apt install xdg-desktop-portal-gnome
It does not help when using wayland session

[xit4r]

@metaer please let us know if the issue was resolved with installing xdg-portal

this doesn't work for me, on clicking take a screenshot or running flameshot gui command, a full-screen screenshot is taken, and when I click on the share button, then a proper flameshot gui appears but a full-screen screenshot being saved in the system and clicking on the share button is overhead.
I have:
Flameshot v12.1.0 ()
Compiled with Qt 5.15.3
and xdg-desktop-portal-gnome is installed

@xit4r I have answered this more than 150 times so if you don't mind I am not going to waste more of my time on Gnome nonsense. Read this:
