grab gone screenshot doesn't work

With the recent upgrade, grab disappeared from my Macbook Air. But it knew enough to suggest screenshot. Strange, but ok. It worked fine for a while, but now when I try to select my own portion of the screen, the cursor turns into a Mickey Mouse hand and I cannot select anything and it will not take a picture. The other two options work.

MacBook Air (2018 or later)

Thanks. When I had used it before the dotted line showed in the middle of the screen. For some reason this time the dotted line for selecting was just inside the perimeter of my monitor. Perhaps that was one of the changes when I chose that option. The arrow changed to the hand and the dotted lines moved. It makes no sense to me. Why change the design for one of six choices.


Oh, well. Apple in it's infinite wisdom.
