Bug Description

Ubuntu Gnome 17.04 64-bit

gnome-screenshot 3.22.0-1ubuntu1

I've tried all formats, e.g. "/home/sadi/Pictures/Screenshots", etc. via dconf editor at "/org/gnome/gnome-screenshot/auto-save-directory" to set the default location for screenshots as usual.
One would expect the safest format would be the one written automatically by the system at "/org/gnome/gnome-screenshot/last-save-directory" when I set it via the command "gnome-screenshot --interactive" which is "file:///home/sadi/Pictures/Screenshots".

But none worked. Every time I press the key PrtSc, I invariably get the screenshot file at the Pictures folder.
