[0.15.3] Screenshot command won't take picture of map

Tried using /screenshot to take a screenshot of the map rather than the gameworld, by opening the map, then opening the command line and using /screenshot. I get nice pictures of the gameworld, not the map.

Did you try to set the gui to true?
I think however that the command only works for making a screenshot of the in-game world.

This command is supposed to take screenshot of the world only, not the map.

I just got caught out with this issue, trying to capture a screenshot for a map glitch bug.
We're talking aboiut the new /screenshot command, added in 0.15, not the modding/raw LUA console commands.

An average user will expect the /screenshot command to capture the screen - what they're looking at. Not including UI elements is useful, but it not working on the map view was unecpected.

I agree it should be able to capture the map view. Thought this was a bug.
