    Screenshot stretches out of capture zone on main display


    Hello!I use a setup with a laptop with and an external monitor hooked up to it. However, screenshots made with the snipping tool tend to stretch outside of the capture area, completely both breaking the resolution of it and not capturing what I meant to save. This happens randomly; sometimes, the screenshots save normally, sometimes they don't. The captures also only mess up when I try taking them on my laptops display, but capture normally on any other device attached to it. Only time it ever works on the laptop display 100% of the time is when I take screenshots with no extra monitors attach
