Can't screenshot selection when focused on dropdown menu (Thunar) or games (Minecraft)

In Minecraft screenshoting works when in chat, in Esc menu, inventories, but not when I'm actually playing.

Atttachment were shot with fullscreen and then cropped in external app.

$ sleep 5; maim --format png --quality 8 --select | xclip -selection clipboard -target image/png
