Screenprint from VNC window
#1
How do you guys take a screenprint in headless mode.

On Win10 + VNC  fn+print  doesnt work - is there another - less windows specific key combination which createds the picture file on the raspi?

Windows snipping tool, then paste wherever you want. Imgur have an app as well which saves to the web and creates a img link to paste into forum posts >>

I find issue with the mac tool as well, but it only when you are hovering ove the VNC window, if you reduce the windows size and select the DT it seem to work ok.

Hi I noticed the same behaviour, and if you think about it, it is actually a logical one. :-D

If you tab the [print screen] button while the VNC window has focus, VNC sends the keystroke to the device opened in the VNC Viewer. Try putting VNC Viewer in view only mode while taking a print screen. That helped for me.
