After upgrading from 11.04 to 11.10, I've noticed that the "Take Screenshot" application used to be launched when I'd hit print screen. Now it automatically captures the entire screen. In 11.04 it would pop up the "take screenshot" application which allows me to capture a rectangular region of the screen.



Can this be reverted? I never want to capture the whole screen, only portions of it, which means manually cropping out that section in GIMP with this changed behaviour.



Cheers.

One way to fix this is by installing compizconfig-settings-manager



sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager


Then when you open the settings manager go to the "Gnome Compatibility":

And the add he interactive "-i" switch to the print command:

After that pressing PrintScreen should open the dialog you want.
