      Just updated the browser and it seems like they fixed it. tested on Twitter, Wiki/Fandom, and Youtube and no headers showed up. It's still moved slightly to the left and up of the marked area, tho.

      Exactly. This happens in 73.0.3856.284

          No, the probleme is continuing... When you are in facebook for example, the same probleme is going on...

              @operator777 That's strange, I'm quite sure the problem is solved in my browser (v. 73.0.3856.284)

                @mstuborg You can try to screenshot small zone areas, and you will see that the same screenshot probleme is still there... The screenshot lines are out of the image once you take the screenshot ...

                  Hmmm. This is the image of your comment captured as-close-as-I-could fit (not so precisely, ofc). Can't see the difference between what I wanted and what I got.8f2eb0f5-49a6-4756-b46e-f78c954fbae5-image.png

                    Use tags to make it easy for other users to find posts about similar issues. If posting about Opera Mail then add the 'Opera Mail' tag

                    My version of Windows: 10

                    My version of Opera: 72.0.3815.378

                    A screen-shot of the problem if it's related to something not showing as should: FFS, how can I make a screenshot to show how it should show, if it doesn't work correctly

                    A description of the problem, including as much as information as possible: Opera built-in screenshot feature doesn't make screenshots as it should/did before. When I want to make a screenshot of some selected space, now it takes screenshot of another place

                    Steps to (try to) reproduce the issue: What can I do? Where I can find Opera's official old versions? And if you are making such bugged version, why do you force autoupdate/install it to our device?! This is not ok! Make sure if it works on 100% before autoupdate, or just let users choose when they want to install the update!

                    Expected behavior and actual one: I already told, it must take screenshot where I select, not some other place, that the browser makes a screenshot idk why

                    i have been facing this issue with FB, then i installed the updated version and then the error sorted out.

                      Well, I see that the serious problem with the header part of web sites is fixed now. So it only left the problem with some left shift of images. Yes, @mstuborg just try to take a screenshot of small area's, and you'll see, that there is a problem.

                      Look, I want to take a screenshot of the like button exactly, but see what I get.

                      Area that I selected:
                      80b40469-002f-4756-9c63-65cf68c09a08-image.png

                      Area that it captured

                        @arthurcloud OK, I got it. Yes, you're right, this happens with small areas in my browser as well :^/

                              @arthurcloud Thank you for this message. Yesterday, I tried to take a screenshot in Donald Trump Facebook's page, and no way ! The screenshot did not take the good area... It was just a fake fix from Opera. The probleme has not been fixed at all.

                                Perhaps connected to this problem, the "Save as PDF" function also crops the top portion off from any larger websites (and as such is pretty much useless).

                                  THE Solution::

                                  Lightshot, a screen capture utility for ALL Windows/Mac screens, not just Opera.

                                    @bbildman Lightshot is not so efficacious than expected... The options are poor. And I know a better solution : This is an opera's add-on, called Web Clipper: Easy Screenshot : https://addons.opera.com/fr/extensions/details/easy-screenshot/
                                    This is easy and it works

                                      It works for me.

                                            I'm curious as to how you don't see Lightshot as being efficacious. A couple things that it does that Opera did not is it stores where you saved the last location, and saves it in more formats than just a png file. Also, I use Lightshot in many of my Windows applications, with a shortcut key that allows Lightshot to work comletely in other apps, for instance in PDF files, in Google Chrome, in MSConfig etc etc.
