I have the following code, which uses F2 to capture active window. In other words, if we are in any window, and we press the F2, will capture the window in the clipboard, and we can paste it to Paint, for example.
Note that i also use the WinGetPosEX in order to avoid the WinGetPos few pixels offset error of Win10 Aero etc....
The problem is the following:
If I capture the active window when part of it is off the desktop, this part is NOT captured.
For example i get the following:
- image.png (31.25 KiB) Viewed 373 times
Code: Select all
F2::
Clipboard := ; Clear the clipboard.
; create a Temp Folder
FileRemoveDir, %A_ScriptDir%\Temp_ScreenShot_Files, 1
sleep 200
FileCreateDir, %A_ScriptDir%\Temp_ScreenShot_Files
; get the active window handle for the WinGetPosEx call
WinGet,Handle1,ID,A
; get the offsets
WinGetPosEx(Handle1,rxx,ryy,rww,rhh)
; get the selected Window area image to clipboard:
DllCall( "DeleteObject", UInt,hBM )
hBM := ""
hBM := GDI_CaptureScreen( rxx, ryy, rww, rhh )
GDI_SaveBitmap( hBM, A_ScriptDir . "\Temp_ScreenShot_Files\Temp_Screenshot.bmp" )
ImageToClipboard( A_ScriptDir . "\Temp_ScreenShot_Files\Temp_Screenshot.bmp")
; delete the Temp Folder
FileRemoveDir, %A_ScriptDir%\Temp_ScreenShot_Files, 1
