Section
This function supposedly allows you to select a section of the window. Despite trying it out several times, I still do not
understand how it works. Hopefully the developer can provide more documentation on this section.
Yes, more info is needed.
Thank your for the development

In summary, this functionality does no longer work as designed, because of changes in Gtk. All necessary information can be found here: https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/shutter/ +bug/444358
It used to work like this:
1) select a window
2) select a piece inside it - like a button, the toolbar, or a text area.
For some windows (Firefox, Virtualbox) it still works which is the reason to keep it in the main program. See this video (Firefox works, Terminal does not work): http:// dl.dropbox. com/u/961086/ section. ogv
