Active mode not working

[Keys02]

hyprshot -m active not taking a screenshot of the active window, is there any package that I have to install to get it to work?

hyprshot -h shows that you must use --mode again with the intended selection under the mode definition for active, so the actual command would be hyprshot -m window -m active

In case you're interested, I maintain a rewrite of Hyprshot called Hyprcap which has some (in my opinion) improved syntax.
