How to take screenshot of open K-menu in Kubuntu
 
Hello again,

I'd like to take a screenshot of an open K-Menu - however whenever I try to press Print Screen or Alt Print Screen on the keyboard nothing happens.

When I click on the KSnapshot window the open K-Menu then loses focus and closes.

I don't think this is a bug - any ideas?

Thanks in advance =)

If you have imagemagick installed (most distros have it by default) you can use from an xterm (or usning F2 in kde):
Code:
import -window root screenshot.png
to take screenshot of your screen

When you start ksnaphot, it will automatically take a snapshot. Discard the snapshot and set a delay of about 5 seconds, navigate to the section you want in the menu and then ksnapshot will do the rest.

You guys are super! I really didn't think much of the delay thing until you pointed it out to me. Wooooooot! I'm so happy about this that I will blog about it!

Thanks! thanks! thanks!
