[SOLVED] Keybinding scrot doesn't work with --select option

Hello,

When setting up keyboard shortcuts using "scrot" without any options works. But when I try binding "scrot -s" or "scrot --select," nothing happens.

scrot -s works when run through a terminal though.

Thank you.

I can confirm this happens.

Fortunately, I found this thread with the same question, and the proposed solution works for me, maybe you can try it!

Just set your shortcut to:

sh -c "sleep 0.1 && scrot -s"
