When using the "Screenshot Node" function from the Developer Tool's inspector, I found that it includes the light-blue color that is used to mark the selected node. However, in most cases, this isn't what I wanted when I wanted to use the Screenshot node function. In most cases I wanted the raw element layout without Inspector interfering.

Tobias, I can't really reproduce it, could you let me know the STR and in which platform? I can totally see why it would happens, but currently I'm not able to make it happens (at least on OS X).

No problem. As far as I can tell, this bug was mitigated since the element loses focus as soon as you have mouse-focus on the context menu of the Inspector. But, you can still reproduce it by following these steps: 1. Open, for example, Google and the Inspector. 2. Right-click on a node in the inspector, I used the Google logo for this. The node gets highlighted with a light-blue color. 3. With the arrow keys of your keyboard navigate to the "Screenshot node" item of the context menu. Once there, press Enter. 4. Check the resulting png file. It contains a blue overlay.

Thanks! I was able to reproduce this way.
