Region screenshots don't show area being selected

[Iain Lane]

[ Description ]

The region being screenshotted with Shift + PrintScreen isn't visible.

[ QA ]

1. Using GNOME Shell, press Shift + Print Screen. The cursor should change to a crosshair.
2. Click and drag to select a region
3. Release

At 2, if the bug is happening, there is no visual indicator of the selected area.

When it's fixed, you can see a highlight - using colours from the theme.

[ Fix ]

There was a fix in GNOME Shell's upstream theme to use the theme colours for this selection, and that makes it work for Yaru. The fix is to sync back up with upstream.

[ Regression potential ]

In order of most to least likely

  - The fix accidentally regresses another area of the theme that we don't know about
  - There's a syntax error, we break the theme and Shell stops loading for everyone (I think that's the failure mode)
