Title: Screenshots Post by: Vassago_Umara on June 29, 2004, 02:12:39 am What is a good program to capture screenshots with?
Title: Re: Screenshots Post by: Michael Martin on June 29, 2004, 02:17:26 am Most modern operating systems will do this for you.
On Win32, the PrintScreen key will capture the whole screen to the clipboard, and alt-PrintScreen (or is it Shift?) will capture just the current window. Most modern Linux systems have window managers that do something similar - GNOME automatically saves them as PNGs, as well.

It supports a number of image formats and allows you to capture screens shots of both the whole desktop or a single window. Title: Re: Screenshots Post by: Vassago_Umara on June 30, 2004, 01:00:09 pm Ah yes, works perfectly. Thanks for the help. ;D
Title: Re: Screenshots Post by: Mark Vera on July 03, 2004, 05:25:27 pm I've made small program for this as well.
http://www.bluecave.net/products/screenslicer/ScreenSlicer100.zip It mostly extendes the Windows' printscreen functionality so that with ctrl-alt-printscreen you can actually drag and "slice" portion of screen for capture. It places this into the clipboard same way as normal printscreen does. Now the problem usually is, how to save this clipboard into something usable (other than bmp files). My program solves this by sitting in the notification area as an icon and providing menu to save clipboard image into jpg, gif or png image. |
