WindowSnapshot Description

The WindowSnapshot application was developed to be a system tray utility to precisely capture screenshots of Windows and Controls anywhere on the screen. The demo app is a Sys Tray utility that activates a context menu when doubled-clicked. Using the demo app, you are able to capture any window or control anywhere on the screen and save the screen-captured bitmap into the clipboard. After that, you'll be able to paste the bitmap from the clipboard onto any bitmap editing tool of your choice. Although my main intention is to give a demonstration of one possible use of the Window Finder utility, such a screen capture utility is pretty useful all on its own. Although you can always use the "PrintScreen" button or the "Alt+PrintScreen" buttons, this utility allows you to precisely select windows and controls. Thus saving you the trouble of having to perform further bitmap area selection and cutting and pasting. Usage:1. Start the demo app and the Window Snapshot icon will appear in the System Tray area 2. Right-click on the icon and a context menu will appear. There will be 3 menu items : - Take A Snapshot - this option will invoke the "Search Window" dialog box which will allow you to select a window or control to take a screenshot of. - About - displays an about message box. - Shutdown - shuts down the entire Sys Tray app. 3. You can also double-click on the icon to directly invoke the Search Window Dialog box. If the dialog box is already running, it is brought to the foreground. 4. Once a window is selected, its information will be displayed in the Search Window Dialog Box and once you click on the "OK" button, a screenshot of the selected window or control will be taken and saved into the system clipboard. 5. Thereafter, use your favourite bitmap editing tool to further edit or save the bitmap.
