Bug Description

When trying to grab a screenshot of the entire desktop, screenshot / shutter only grabs the wallpaper and none of the panels. It does capture the mouse pointer.

I have a attached the photo that it takes. No top panel and no applications on the left hand side. In addition, if you have any windows open, it will not capture them either. No crash report is generated.

version : 13 maya - cinnamon , last updated.
x64

I had this problem since the installation , also a few days ago I had upgraded to cinnamon 1.6 as I saw many bugs has been solved in the change log but I still have this problem.

also the output image for alt + print scr is the same . no difference at all.
