Bug Description
Hi,
Ubuntu 22.04 here.
I've installed gnome-screenshot as the default capture tool does not offer delay when needing to capture secondary menus ( those under right click or coming from panels, or coming from application menu… )
My issue with gnome-screenshot is :
it is unable to capture mouse-cursor !
Anytime I try a « full screen » capture with delay + mouse cursor,
mouse cursor shows at 0,0 coordinate on the resulting picture.
This is on Xorg.
On Wayland it's 99% OK ( the mouse-cursor position is not pixel perfect accurate, but very close to its real position. )
1920×1080 px size screen, so no size factoring or HiDpi involved.
Always reproducible.
( Other applications are unable to « capture » mouse cursor, ie peek, so maybe not specific to gnome-screenshot )

Same in Ubuntu 22.10 / Xorg / gnome-screenshot 41.0
