Alt+Printscreen

Guest · Post by **Guest** » 2004-11-02 14:27

I use both NetOP and VNC to remote control some servers. The only thing that prevents me from only using VNC (and not buying NetOP) is that I can not take a printscreen of the active window (ALT+PRINTSCRN). I use that function often.

Would that be possible in a future version?

This does work, I just tried it... however you get the whole of the VNC Screen and I guess you dont want that? so if you use the Toolbar at the top and hit the "Select Single Windows" button and then select the windows that you want and then hit ALT+PrintScreen you can then paste just that screen on your local Machine.

i'm thinking he wants to take a screenshot of the server on the server, not a shot of vnc on the client.

Yes, that is what I want - to take a screenshot of the active window on the VNC server.

yeah, i couldnt get it to do that either. i dont think vnc is sending the alt-ps key combo. you might have to resort to finding a utility for the server to take screenshots.
