[Bug 1526082] [NEW] Area of screenshot remains highlighted until application closed

 

Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce:

- hit shift+PrintScreen
- Drag and drop to select a rectangular area of the screen to take a screenshot of
- don't close the Gnome Screenshot dialog. Minimize it if you want

Observed issue: the rectangular area that has been captured remains
slightly highlighted (i.e. brighter) as long as the Gnome Screenshot
application's dialog is open. No matter what window is on the foreground
(or even fullscreen for that matter), you'll keep noticing the slightly
brighter rectangle.

See attachment screenshot: you can see the rectangle approximately at
the center of the screen.
