Take A Screenshot Of Screen?
Apr 24, 2010
I'm trying to take a screenshot of my screen, and get the picture from memory. Then convert it to a string so it can be sent over a network. So far I've tried to adapt this code.
Dim
ScreenSize As
Size = New

I'm using the code below to get a screenshot of the entire screen.
VB.NET
Dim b As New Bitmap(Me.Width, _
Me.Height, _
[Code]....
But I need to edit it so that it only takes the a screenshot of my form. I'm not sure how to pass the absolute coordinates of my form's top most left corner and it's bottom most right corner.

I know how to take a screenshot, but how can I take a screenshot of the screen behind my form without hiding the form, taking the screenshot, then showing the form again?The reason I can't simply hide the form to capture the screen behind it is that I need to take the screenshot repeatedly, and hiding the form each time I need to take the screenshot would cause the form to flicker.
Here is the code I'm using now:
Me.Opacity = 0 ' Hides the form. Can't use this!
Dim bounds As Rectangle = Me.Bounds
Dim screenshot As New Bitmap(bounds.Width, bounds.Height, Imaging.PixelFormat.Format32bppArgb)
Dim g As Graphics = Graphics.FromImage(screenshot)
[code]....

I am looking to create simple application that means that when the 'Print Screen' button is pressed, the screenshot is not just sent to the clipboard but saved to the desktop in either JPEG or PNG format.The application will run at startup so that the 'new' print screen functionality is there but the interface of the app is opened manually.(the app interface includes simple options such as choose where file is saved.)

I picked vb.net for this question since it's the only prgramming language I am fairly familair with, but if C++ or something else is more suited for this, I am willing to learn something new.What I am trying to do is:Retrieve text from database (this already works in vb.net) and copy it to clipboard Switch primary screen to the external application I want to work with (example: word or open office) Emulate key-press "Enter" Paste text and hit enter again Emulate key-press CTRL and then emulate a click on a pre-defined spot on the screen (like 500pixels from left, 740pixels from top). Save screenshot, using a second value from the database as the filename (the naming part should be easy) Emulate another click on another pre-defined spot Repeat for next text in database.I wouldn't know where to start, though. I guess the most important part of what I'm trying to achieve is; switching focus to an external application and emulate keypresses and mouse clicks on it.

So I'm trying to take a screen capture of the windows form and display only a certain specified area of that screen capture in a picturebox on a different form. Kind of like this. First, take the screen capture of the form: Then get a specified area of that form through x,y coordinates or something and display it on a picturebox on a separate form.

BTW this issue occurs in any MS office program when the VB.Net (or even VBA) is processing information.Example: In Excel, a worksheet is displayed on the screen. I start either, a VB.Net or VBA procedure and within 30 seconds the Excel worksheet (previously displayed) blanks out. In both VB.Net and VBA,ScreenUpdating = False. My expectation is that the previously displayed screen would stay static as if I left my desk to get a cup of coffee; came back and the same ole Excel worksheet was still there?Of course, setting VBA Screen Updating = False accomplishes two goals: 1) speeds up processing and 2) saves the user from seeing unnecessary "garbage-processing" steps.Why does VBA or VB.Net ScreenUpdating = False not freeze the screen at the time of its invoking?

I have a program that has the ability to take a screenshot of a Panel on a form.I provide the user with a Save File Dialog box to choose the path of the saved .png image.My problem is that if the user does not move the modal Save File Dialog box out of the way before clicking the save button, the screenshot includes the box over the top of the panel.

Everything seems to be working perfectly, but i bumped into a situation were i dont know how to handle.If the target website has some ajax information that needs to be loaded after the ready state, i get a screenshoot of the page with no data, because the data was not loaded yet.

Is there a method to hide your application from screenshots without the use of ".hide" or minimize or opacity basically not touching the application at all but not including it in the screenshot? For instance in GDI when you g.CopyfromScreen the mouse is not included and you would have to go through a way drawing the mouse onto the graphic can something like this be achieved with application?

I wrote some code for a program I am making to take a screenshot when the program is minimized. Thing is something is wrong with the code and I am not sure what it is. Whenever I take a screenshot the program is taking the picture with the application up and not minimized.
So what I need it to do is minimize the application then take the screenshot and then reopen the program after its taken the screenshot. for the noob question but I am brand new to the VB and only been coding it in for less then a day.

I'm making some Aero-style transparent forms (signature), and they work just fine. However, to get a screenshot of the area behind the form using Graphics. CopyFromScreen(), the form has to be less than 100% Opacity, so CopyFromScreen doesn't include the window in the picture. This also means that when you have more than one open, they see through each other.

I want to make a program that will take a screenshot inside the bounds of a rectangle. Is there a way to do this? I don't want to use sendkeys{"(prtsc)"} because that doesn't take a screenshot of only an area on the form.
