Gimp Screencapture Question
 

Hi there --

I am running GIMP 2.2 and am trying to capture a section of rather than the entire screen. I go to File/Acquire and select Single Window in the Grab utility. A cross hairs appears and I select a portion of the screen.

However, instead of just that area of the screen being captured, the entire screen is captured. What steps or settings do I need to change to correct this? Thanks.

Select single Window means that, for example, you have a terminal window open and click on that terminal, only the terminal will be captured. If you have Firefox and click on the firefox title, only firefox will be captured. If you need to grab a specific area of the screen, it would perhaps be easier to simply grab the whole screen and edit (copy/paste) the part of the picture you want to save with Gimp.

Was that what you meant?
