[mmahmoudian]

Because Arch repo is not maintained by us. Give it a few days and it will also get updated, or switch to AUR.

[JOSE-LEONEZIO]

The new version of Flameshot (v13.1.0) isn't working properly on Windows. When taking a screenshot, the screen is reduced and the resolution is reduced. In other words, instead of taking a screenshot of the entire screen, it can only take a screenshot of a reduced portion of the screen.

[mmahmoudian]

This is reported in #4172.

Try this and let us know if it is fixed:

[WillTbn]

I was going through the same thing, this alternative was a little better, it still reduces the screen (I don't know if it could be because I have 2) but it's not reducing the resolution. @mmahmoudian

see:

[thenueva]

There was no issue with the version you recommended, but this screen problem started after the latest update.

[thenueva]

Additionally, I’d like to mention another issue: After installing version 10, I disable the automatic update option from the settings. However, even though I turn off this feature, the system still installs the new version automatically when I restart the computer.

[leisefuxX]

won't start on MacBook Pro 14" (2021) wit M1 Pro under Sequoia 15.6.1
:/
keeps asking for permissions every time and finally won't start at all...

[mmahmoudian]

@leisefuxX Please follow instructions here and don't change the order:

https://flameshot.org/docs/guide/troubleshooting/#all-opened-applications-go-away-and-only-the-blank-desktop-is-visible-for-selection

[leisefuxX]

funnily it works and runs and won't hang up, when i REMOVE the permissions at all...

removed the old flameshot and all permissions, installed 13.1.0, runs again... weird

[QuesQuestion]

I noticed that the size of the buttons for the tools are bigger, is there a way to make them smaller again like how they were in previous versions?

[Isolator70]

Did I just not find it or is there no portable version for Windows?

[ElTh0r0]

If you are looking for a Windows version, which doesn't need an installation, then you just didn't find it; it is on the release page:

Please note, that it is not 100% portable beacuse the settings are stored inside the users folder 'C:/Users/MrX/AppData/Roaming/flameshot' (see #3848)

[viktorbystrov347-jpg]

Flameshot v13.1.0 (79395fd) Compiled with Qt 6.8.1 winnt: 10.0.19045 windows: 10 The screen scale on a laptop is 14 inches 150%. Is there any way to fix this without changing the scale?

[mmahmoudian]

@viktorbystrov347-jpg
This was already reported in #4172 (19 days ago) and already fixed in #4169 and merged (4 days ago)

[guiwebdev]

Stiil not ok

[hanjukim-hanwha]

same issue here

[gfr73-dev]

Using latest version, with 2560x1660 and 150%, the screen capture reduces the screen area, making it impossible to use.

It only works "good" if I change to 1920x1600 and 100%

Downgrade to v12.1.0 (96c2c82) and everything works nicely.

[thenueva]

Hello, I’m using two monitors, and after installing the latest update, my primary monitor is set to 100% scaling while the second monitor is at 120%. Because of this, a certain part of the program is not displaying properly. Could you please help me fix this issue?

[guiwebdev]

Downgrade to v12.1.0 and everything works nicely.

[thenueva]

Yes, I am using the personnel I mentioned, but since there are more than a hundred users in our company who are also performing updates, it’s difficult to change everything all at once. That’s why I requested the update to the new version.

[xodotLBO]

After updating to the lastest version, Flameshot moves all my 3 screens to the left and messes up the scaling, resolution and everything else.
