Originally filed downstream, please see below:

Description of problem:

Using Alt+Screen print should capture the active window, currently it does nothing.  Normal screenprint functions as you'd expect.  I believe this quit working after my upgrade from F17 to F18 via fedup.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

F18x64 XFCE all updates as of today.

Comment 1 Maximilien Noal 2013-02-14 16:29:10 CET
Add xfce4-screenshooter -f for PrintScreen in xfce4-keyboard-settings -> Applications Shortcuts to capture the entire screen
To capture the active window, add xfce4-screenshooter -w to Alt+PrintScreen in the same place.

I think it's a distro's work. For example, Xubuntu's default settings do exactly that, if I recall correctly.
Comment 2 Andy Lawrence 2013-02-14 16:42:54 CET
Interesting, when I opened xfce4-keyboard-settings xfce4-screenshooter -w was mapped to <Alt> Print, when I re-mapped it to Alt + Printscreen it changed it to Sys_Req, which now works?
