Hi all,
since 4.1 there is no screenshot tool in dom0 anymore. Is there a suitable substitute? Preferably endorsed by qubes developers?
You should be able to use the standard xfce screenshot tool (hit PrintScreen button). The file will be saved in dom0.How to copy from dom0 | Qubes OS .
Alternatively (AFAIK not yet endorsed by the Qubes developers): https://github.com/evadogstar/qvm-screenshot-tool .

The ability send dom0 screenshots directly to an AppVM/DispVM from the screenshot app is an oft-requested feature (see below). The ability to transfer saved screenshot files from dom0 to other VMs is [ already available](CopyToDomZero), but it is neither obvious nor easy for most users to do this.

Hi @qubesfan35267 ,
Also from Main XFCE Menu > System Tools > Screenshot . In general, I copy the captured region to clipboard.

So thank you all for your replies. I just figured that the screenshot tool is still available under the XFCE environment - I am working under PLASMA and it just does not show there. Was not aware of this so I installed deepin-screenshot and it works really awesome under PLASMA.
