Description

@davidhedlund

Expected behaviour

It should always be visible. It makes it impossible to take screenshots to demonstrate issues like: GtkHeaderBar: Close button's mouse-over area doesn't extend to top-right pixel when maximized (fitts' law) when the pointer is hidden when "Include pointer" is enabled.

Actual behaviour

The cursor is hidden from the screenshot

It should be visible like here (taken with scrot -p):

visible

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

  • Run mate-screenshot --interactive, and enable "Include pointer".
  • Place the mouse pointer to the edge of the screen.
  • Take screenshot by hitting Enter.
