Hi Helen, I found that I was not able to take screenshot on 3.0, do you have this issue?

Hi Eric，
I can also repro bug 1159572 on my flame 3.0 device.

Tiffanie, could you also help here?

For 2.2 and previous version, taking snapshot would stop recording, and I am not so sure if this is as ux spec design.

It looks like this bug is related:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1173669

While this wasn't intentional, I'm going to opt to leave things alone after thinking it over and talking with another designer.

The reason is that while in the viewfinder, if the user wants to take a screenshot, they could just take a photo. This does mean that it would be impossible to take a screenshot of the camera viewfinder UI (e.g. shutter button) but I think this is an acceptable trade-off for the ability to take photos with the volume rocker. (Note this only affects the viewfinder - preview and the menu should not be doing volume capture).

This does make our lives harder when we need to take screenshots of the camera viewfinder UI for bugs and such, but for camera the primary use case is going to be taking a photo and it makes sense to prioritize this over taking a screenshot.

LMK if there's any other questions!

If this is better for user, our inconvenience is acceptable. Please keep me in the loop if you have any decision. ;)
