Just a heads-up
if you did a photograph for aesthetic reasons or something, carry on, but if you did so because you couldn't find a good way to take a screenshot, I usually use the command-line
grim
utility. I'll sometimes do something like$ sleep 3; grim
on one workspace, then flip to the one I want to screenshot, so that three seconds after issuing the command, it'll save a screenshot.I'm sure that there are also other utilities out there, and KDE Plasma may have its own screenshot utility built in somewhere. But I can vouch that
grim
will do it.Flameshot and bind it to your PrtSc button. It has been the absolute best screenshot util I've ever used.
