Bug Description

Install unity on Artful and then login to the Unity session.

Open an application - such as a terminal
Press ALT+PrintScreen to capture the window

Expected behaviour

- get a screenshot of the window

Actual behaviour

- HUD pops up after screenshotting and the screenshot obtained is of the HUD, not the window.

In attached screenshot I tried to screenshot the browser window I'm typing this bug in, but I got a region of the top of the screen where HUD appears.

HUD Should not be triggered when doing ALT+Printscreen.
