Compiz Screenshot in Cinnamon

[bogatron]

The one feature I miss the most from the Compiz/Gnome2 days is the superkey + drag shortcut to get a screenshot of a selected area. Does anyone know if there is a method or plugin to get this functionality in Cinnamon?

I went through there already and it looks like the only options offered are panel shortcuts - I was looking for the old keyboard combo for instant selection screenshots.

In Compiz/Gnome2, you could hold the Win key and make a selection area with the mouse which would then capture a screenshot of that selected area. I see there are options to click a panel icon and choose 'Select area', but my question is how to set it up as the aforementioned keyboard/mouse shortcut.
