When run without any command line arguments, Flameshot installs a tray
icon, near the volume icon and the Network Manager icon in my case.
To make a screenshot, I click on the icon, which dims the screen and
allows me to draw a rectangle to show the region I want to capture.
I have just discovered that you can run the "flameshot gui" command,
which has the same effect as clicking on the tray icon. Maybe you could
try this option if you don't see the tray icon appear.

Hi,
I installed flameshot, but it doesn’t open.
I tried it beforehand with guix shell flameshot and it worked not
completely, but somehow.
But now, after installation it doesn’t open at all.

Do you have guix system or are you on an other distro?
Yes, I run Guix System (and EXWM as the window manager).

Hi Gottfried,
I have nothing to add about your main question but :
Gottfried <gottfried@posteo.de> [2023-04-17T14:45:28+0200]:
How do you create this screenshot with the red arrow?
I use Flameshot, which comes in the package aptly named flameshot.
This program lets you choose the part of the screen to capture, and
allows you to add some basic graphics, e.g. arrows, text, shapes, etc.
GIMP is good, and I also use it for screenshots from time to time,
but
Flameshot is often much faster to use.
