Hi,
Running FC4, I want to capture a screen snapshot of a displayed window and save it into a word document. I tried Ctrl-PrintScreen to copy and paste it to Writer Word processor as I did with Windows XP, but it didn't work. Please let me know how can I do that?
Thanks,
--david le.

Right click on menu bar, select Add to Panel, select Take Screenshot. This gives you a clickable icon to snap the whole display and then the choice of where to store the png file.
Another option, From the RedHat menu button, select Desktop->Preferences->Keyboard Shortcuts. Look for the "Take a Screenshot" and "Take a Screenshot of a Window". Set them and use them. In all cases you will have to save the png file somewhere, then load it into Writer.

To capture all the screen press PrintScreen and to capture only the active window press Alt PrintScreen. At least it works for me.

I'm using what I believe to be the default setup, with metacity, and Cntl-Printscreen takes a screenshot of the active window and lets me save it to a png. YMMV.

Another alternative is to use ksnapshot, but I am not sure whether it only works on KDE.

If you are using gnome a simple print screen captures the whole screen, an alt+print screen captures the window you are viewing. Also if you installed ImageMagick, you can also select run and type import filename.jpg, filename.png, etc and use it to capture windows or full screen.

Why I can't make a screen shot of mplayer movie? - It takes the window covered with blue inside, but no movie picture!

It's probably because mplayer is defaulting to the Xv device for video output. Try the -vo X11 option.

Hi,
I think the reason is because the "screenshot" function basically reads the current framebuffer into a file. The problem with this is hardware accelerators have their own framebuffer that they overlay directly. This buffer is not read by the screenshot function

No, actually it's magic. Or just about, as the video card is compositing the video onto the regular desktop using a color key. At least, that's how it was done on MacOS some years back. Probably doing accellerated decoding on the video card. ____________________________________________________________________ TonyN.:' mailto:tonynelson@georgeanelson.com ' http://www.georgeanelson.com/
