      @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

                    @mstuborg I found a provisional solution : This is an opera's add-on, called Web Clipper: Easy Screenshot : https://addons.opera.com/fr/extensions/details/easy-screenshot/
                    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.

                            You can also print directly from the image screenshot, as well as edit it before you copy or save it. (Lightshot)

                                @sknfer-lmalem Hello, no, the bug was ameliorated but not fixed by Opera who doesnt give a f... for the browser's issues. You have the choice of choosing Mozilla Firefox, or another browser but the screenshot doesnt work with Opera. Very sad thing from Opera.

                                    I hae posted many times here, use Lightshot, it's head and shoulders better than the native screenshot in Opera

                                    Lightshot::

                                      I have the same bug with the screenshot feature. Opera has much more bugs lately and what's the worst part they aren't getting fixed or at least commented by the devs.

                                        @bbildman I dont like Lightshot because it is not simple and easy to use.

                                            @operator777 You should not expect replies from Opera.
