No 'Copy to Clipboard' option in xfce4-screenshooter

There is no 'Copy to Clipboard' option in xfce4-screenshooter tool in my Arch.
Also, when I try to manually save screenshot to clipboard with

 xfce4-screenshooter --region -c 

it doesn't work.
What can be the source of the problem?

My DM is OpenBox, my xfce4-screenshooter is of version 1.8.2

Here is the screenshot: (img tag doesn't work for some reason)

Thanks in advance for any help. I will provide any other information if required.

Re: No 'Copy to Clipboard' option in xfce4-screenshooter

Copy to clipboard will only work if
- a clipboard manager is running. parcellite does not work, only xfce4-clipman and the internal one from Gnome are working
and/or
- the screenshooter plugin was added to the panel. It will store the image.

This is a bug fix from the Red Hat Bugzilla forums.

It works indeed!
Tank you!
Question - is there a way to start it without icon in system tray? Back in Xubuntu it worked without any icon. There is no man page for this tool.
