Menu>Graphic>Take a Shot does that automatically saving it to /root but leaving it's GUI open so you can edit or delete. You can, of course, move the screenshot, or use TAS's GUI to select a default directory other than /root.

Take a gif does what it says. Both are very accomplished applications. You can use Menu>JWMDesk>Launch to place launchers on your Panel(s). Menu>JWMDesk>Options, put a check in the Accessory Tray button to create a 2ns Panel.

Make use of `PrintScrren` button on keyboard. :thumbup2:

(1)
Press `PrintScrren` & paste clipboard memory copy to GIMP as new image.

(2)
Use mtPaint utility.

vi ~/.jwm/jwmrc-personal

append hotkey:

Code: Select all

<Key keycode="111">exec:fullScreenShot.sh</Key>

vi /usr/local/bin/fullScreenShot.sh

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
mtpaint -s

<CTL> P
Also makes a print screen.

Several of those also allow selecting a region

:thumbup: :thumbup:

Is there any way to select a menu selection area to capture when you look for a menu item?
Like
<Menu> <Graphic> <pull down Items in it>

This is really great!
Thanks

It looks like the only way to get a screen copy of the menu, is to select Fullscreen. I suppose the resultant picture could then be edited to just show the menu part.

Thanks

???

  • Are you using TAS?

  • Do you ONLY want the desktop's Menu?

If so, Yes as you surmise:

  1. PrntScrn to TAS window

  2. Set the timer

  3. Click 'Fullscreen'

  4. "Take A Shot" button

  5. mouse-click desktop Menu

  6. wait for time expiration

  7. edit the result in MtPaint removing all except the Menu portion of the picture.

That's what I experienced.
It works. The apps are very powerful to give what a person can use. Puppy Linux has some very useful utilities. I have a lot to learn.

It's great!!

Thanks

Set the timer
Click 'Fullscreen'

In TAS . Instead of fullscreen you can also choose "Region" and select the region around the menu space, then within the time delay you have selected (e.g. 5 sec) , raise the menu.

As you seem to prefer Keyboard Shortcuts to GUIs in some instances, you might want to do a psearch, https://rockedge.org/psearch/ on the phrase "keyboard shortcuts" to see how Puppies implement them.
