Most screenshot tools broke in Wayland. But luckily the developer community caught up quickly and we have a few functional alternatives.

Besides the native gnome-screenshot tool (which is a bit slow for heavy screenshotters) there are two other functional tools:

(Btw, I’m on Fedora 28, if you’re not, your milage may vary).

Fastest Tool:

If you’re looking for a 1-click thing without annotation, then Gnome-extension Screenshot Tool by oal is your friend.

Useful features include:

• Configurable to be ‘one click on toolbar’ to make screenshot (Primary button option).
• Auto copy to clipboard & autosave
• Area/window/screen
• Imgur & auto-upload support.
• Keybindings

Installation:
1) (If not done so already) Install Gnome extension support for your browser.

• Firefox
• Chrome
• Opera

2) (If not done so already) Also install the native connector (in addition to browser plugin).

On Fedora: dnf install chrome-gnome-shell

3) Install the extension:

As a note, at time of writing, the area-selection seemed to include a blue overlay. Haven’t found a way around it so I use Flameshot for area screenshots.

Most Feature Rich : Flameshot

Features include:

• Rich annotation tools. (Pencil, arrows, shapes, blurring)
• Rich set of export tools (copy to clipboard, open in app, save, upload).
• But missing ‘add text to screenshot’ at the moment (May 2018), which shutter had.

Installation:

• sudo dnf install flameshot
• See also github page

Double click on the status-bar icon & (wait for 2-3 seconds) to select area to screenshot.

Happy screenshotting!
