Ubuntu :: Screen Capture Of A Selected Area Hot Key
May 7, 2010On my Mac, when I press F2, I am able to take a screen shot of a selected area. Is it possible to assign a hot key to do the same thing on my Ubuntu 10.04 PC?

View 4 Repliesif there is a way of selecting a specific area of the screen and increase brightness? The thing is that I had to reduce my monitor brightness and contrast, due to recurring headaches. The new configuration is fine for most applications, but videos on web pages are too dark. I have created a script that allows me to change nvidia settings quickly, but when switching to the brighter setup my eyes hurt even if it is just for a moment. So I would like to be able to brighten a specific area of the screen.

I already know imageshack and scrot, but they don't do what I need because I need to know previously coordinates and the dimension of the selected area. I need a program that I could select a rectangle with my mouse to take a screenshot of that part.I don't know if I'm clear what I'm trying to say is that I need something like this google-chrome plugin[URL]

I wish to grant selected users, or groups, full access to selected network interfaces (including ability to adjust IP address and to bind to low ports, but *only* on those interfaces). It is important to me that an user/group does not such full control over other interfaces. Granting partial, or temporary, root permissions is OK; it's a friendly environment.How do I go about it?System: Linux 2.6.recent; usual Debian setup (can be adjusted if needed).

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am using Ubuntu 11.04 and after an update 2 days ago, I have noticed that the icons in the notification area get pushed off screen. For example, if I open up a site in Firefox with a long title, the icons will be pushed away by the title and will not appear in the correct areas until I logout and back in. Also, if I use gnome-panel everything seems to be well but when the gnome panel is not displayed then the same problem is there.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a dual head setup on Fedora 15 with nvidia drivers: two separate X screens (no xinerama, no twin view). Screen 1 is at right of Screen 0. My Wacom tablet is recognized by the xorg server and the whole tablet area is mapped to the whole area of Screen 0 which is exactly what i want. However when the stylus goes beyond the right edge of the screen, the tablet area gets mapped to Screen 1 and there is no way to come back to Screen 0. What i would like is to restrict the tablet to Screen 0 all the time. I used to do this in Fedora 13 by adding a file named
Code:
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-wacom.conf
in which there was a line
Code:
Option "ScreenNo" "0"
It doesn't work anymore. The option seems to be ignored by xorg since it doesn't appear anymore in
Code:
/var/log/Xorg.0.log
How can i restrict the tablet area to Screen 0?
I need to take a screen capture while an application is running. The application is a touch screen calibration utility and alt-Prnt Scrn does not work when the calibration utility is active. Is there another way for me to capture the screen while the utility is active?

Also, If there is a step by step overall troubleshooting guide,I would appreciate its location. This did not freeze under 10.10, but I have changed wifi card (changed driver) and loaded VirtualBox from oracle (not Ubuntu - VB not running during freeze)) - no other changes.

I have an NVIDIA video card attached to my LG plasma TV by vga cable. My display is offset slightly with some of the left-most and top-most area of the screen out of range with an equal amount of black/unused screen to the bottom and right. Is there a way for me to recalibrate my display to correct for this?

I've tried turning off Compiz, but that doesn't do anything. I suspect it may have something to do with the kms (I have an Intel 82855/855GM, which has had issues in beta).
I wonder if there is the possibility of getting to press any key and the F6 for example, Fedora starts up a screenshot, equal to application "form screen capture image" in the menu acessories .. The problem is that if I want to do this I have to be opening up the application every time .. and I like to do with was fast, just by clicking F6 or printscreen for example ..

On my Windoze machine, I use Replay Media Catcher 4 which runs silently in the background and captures any videos (FLV, AVI, MPG, WMV, etc) on any websites that I happen to go to, and saves them to a folder on my hard drive. Right now, if I want to save a video that I'm wathing from Ubuntu, I have to go to /temp, guess which file it is, and copy it after it downloads fully but before it finishes playing, otherwise Firefox deletes it from /temp right away. This is a pain.
Yes, there are screen motion capture utilities in the Ubuntu Software Center, but they're just screen scrapers that result in low quality copies without any audio. I want something that will actually capture the video stream and save it as a file. Even if it doesn't save all videos automatically like RMC4, and I have to right click on the video to Save As, that would be better than copying it from /temp at the precise exact moment.
As the title says, I'm looking for a command to resize on the fly as I capture. My desktop's 1680x1050, but I want to shrink down to say 1280x720.. or other.
So far my command is code...
I want to make a demo of a 3d app I'm writing, but I don't know of any good screencasting software like it that runs on Linux.
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy screen capture software, shutter and system's default "take screenshot", do not function normal any more. It can only capture the desktop wallpaper, not any other elements on the desktop, nor any other opened windows. It's just like taking an x-ray picture by passing all the other objects/elements/running programs on top of the desktop wallpaper. Any ideas? I am using Fedora 14 64 bit. The screen capture software were working fine, though.

View 1 Replies View RelatedOne of those things that make yo go "WTF?" After browsing the internet with Firefox, there appears a peculiar problem: if I move the pointer to a certain area of the screen, I can't click (left, right, middle) nor use mouse wheel. The area can be of variable size, but usually it's small, in the lower part of the screen, it's x dimension greater than y one (a horizontally placed rectangle). The problem doesn't go away when I restart Firefox (obviously it does when I reboot). It obstructs any window under it (I can't even click on the desktop where 'it' is). It's as if there is an invisible window that 'steals' focus when I move the mouse over it. I'm on 11.04, Classic Ubuntu (Gnome 2.3x).
A quick UPDATE: dragging an icon and dropping it on the said area behaves as if I dragged an item and dropped it where it doesn't belong (i.e. it just slowly returns to it's original position). Also, I tried killing it with Force Quit applet, but only my desktop reloaded.
I need a bash script that auto captures the screen (every 30 sec) and then realize an archive with those screenshots. The script will allow me to quering by user name and date and time framing and if exists a capture archive, it will display a slideshow that presents the captures of specified time.
