            Bug ID: 15348
           Summary: Retaking a snapshot should be easier
    Classification: Apps
           Product: Xfce4-screenshooter
           Version: 1.9.5
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Medium
         Component: General
          Assignee: xfce-bugs at xfce.org
          Reporter: mi+xfce-2014 at aldan.algebra.com
  Target Milestone: ---

I invoke the screenshooter as the panel add-on. By default it is set to
snapshot the entire screen, which makes sense as sometimes one may want to
snapshoot something fleeting in a hurry.

However, other times, when I want only a part of the screen (window, or area),
it is a tedious process:
. Right-click on the add-on
. Bring up the configuration dialog
. Change the configuration
. Save it
. Use the new configuration to shoot the desired area
. Repeat to return things back to normal

Having used KDE's screenshooter in the past, I'd much like XFCE's to have the
same options: once the dialog is up with the first snapshot, it should be
possible to take new ones -- of different areas -- with neither restarting it
nor having to make permanent configuration-changes.
