v0.3.2 - local screenshot wants to upload about budgie-screenshot-applet HOT 12 CLOSED

Eh, this might also mean it can't open the file (I was lazy, I know :P).
Care to post some terminal output (budgie-panel) ?

from budgie-screenshot-applet.

oh wait. Check raven if "Local" is really the chosen option.
And if it is, try changing it to something else and back to Local.

from budgie-screenshot-applet.

yep raven says "Local"

budgie-panel --replace &

Running gnome-screenshot in a terminal successfully writes a ~/Pictures screenshot picture

from budgie-screenshot-applet.

What is the output of gsettings get org.gnome.gnome-screenshot last-save-directory ?

from budgie-screenshot-applet.

gsettings get org.gnome.gnome-screenshot last-save-directory
''

from budgie-screenshot-applet.

Huh, so it doesn't have a default one set.
Ok, I'll add an option to change the save directory instead of trying to use the last one used by gnome-screenshot.

Sigh... 0.3.3 it is :P

from budgie-screenshot-applet.

It'll just default to ~/Pictures or ~/Pictures/Screenshots

from budgie-screenshot-applet.

k - thanks!

BTW - those people who don't use english as their locale is the folder known as "~/Pictures" ?

suspect need to grep through this file for the pictures folder name

Yeah, I'll use GLib.Environment

from budgie-screenshot-applet.

0.3.3 released.
Note: Local mode is now a boolean ("enable-local" in the gschema) so you'll need to update your patch.

from budgie-screenshot-applet.

excellent thanks. Looks good!
