Screenshot Captor / Re: How to capture window client area
« on: February 22, 2011, 01:26 AM »
I already had redbox mode enabled.
It works fine if I capture e.g. Notepad. Just the client area.
I'll give you an example when it doesn't work.
I'm using Xming server and Putty to remotely control a device. The UI of the device is shown in a Xming window. This is the window I want to capture, without the Xming part, i.e. only the client area.
I've attached three captures.
The first (Project Options 001) is an object mode capture (ctrl-click). It shows the complete active window.
The second (Project Options 002) is a scrolling window mode capture (ctrl-shift-click). It shows a somewhat broken active window.
The third is a capture I've done with the PicPick Editor program. It succeeds in capturing the client area only.
I tried to insert the images in the text but they didn't show up in the preview so I skipped it. I hope you can see them
