Does not work on external monitor

[maxpiratemax]

Flameshot Version

v12.1.0

Installation Type

Linux, MacOS, or Windows Package manager (apt, pacman, eopkg, choco, brew, ...)

Operating System type and version

Sonoma 14.7

Description

I use it on mac os. A monitor is connected to the macbook via hdmi. When I just run flameshot and the mouse cursor is on the external monitor, it triggers there. But after a while it stops working on the external monitor and only works on the macbook screen. After restarting the program the problem goes away, but not for long.

Steps to reproduce

1. Connect an external monitor to your MacBook via HDMI.
2. Start Flameshot.
3. Move your mouse cursor to the external monitor.
4. Take a screenshot with Flameshot(shift+cmd+x) with the cursor over the external monitor. Make sure Flameshot is working correctly and capturing the area on the external monitor.
5. Leave Flameshot running and continue working on the computer.
6. Wait for a while (usually a few minutes or hours, depending on how often the bug occurs).
7. Try taking a screenshot with Flameshot again by hovering over the external monitor and pressing shift+cmd+x
8. Notice that Flameshot no longer responds to the external monitor, and the area capture only appears on the MacBook screen, even though the mouse cursor is on the external monitor
9. Restart Flameshot to temporarily fix the problem.
10. Repeat steps 6-10 to see if the problem occurs again after some time.
