Flameshot version

flameshot.dmg - Mac OS distro

Describe the bug

When trying to take a screenshot, all opened applications go away and only the blank desktop is visible for selection:
Screenshot 2021-04-06 at 22 50 01

My background is black, which is why it is all black, if I change the background colour, it will be that colour.

I have also tried to use flame shot on in-built MacBook display, but its the same, even without the monitors

To Reproduce

  1. Open flameshot on Mac OS BigSur
  2. Try taking a screenshot with flameshot

Expected behavior

I expected to be allowed to select and area of the active monitor and its opened windows and applications.

System Information

MacOS BigSur

Did you give flameshot security permissions to record your desktop?

Of course, it was not given permission before, now it is working fine, thank you Jeremy!
