Synopsis

          screenshot type \
             target

Description

NOT POSSIBLE

TkPath surface is not suitable to get a screen-shot from a certain section. Only packages such as »img«, »pixane« provide the necessary functions. - Img seems to have trouble with base64 encoding? And I don't want to make it mandatory. - pixane is closed source.

Issue remains open. This procedure remains a place holder, until it can be sorted out.

In order to get a functional SVG output, instantiate is called. Instantiate is being called »before« screenshot.

Some window classes are registered for using screen-shots:

Example 4.49. Register for Screen-shots

vgcode::register-screenshot \
TButton TRadiobutton TCheckbutton TMenubutton \
Spinbox TNotebook Radiobutton Checkbutton Menubutton \
Scale Scrollbar

... the registration code is shown above.

There is a Img related version included. That is, screen-shots are taken using Img. However the results are very bad under AQUA, some issue within Img 1.3, I think.

Under AQUA, Button is registered to use the screen-shot facility, too.
