Ubuntu :: Taking A Screenshot Of Dropdown Menus?

Jun 26, 2010

I'm making a tutorial for a program and it involves me screen shooting dropdown menus, however this is inpossible with the screenshot software in ubuntu.

to reproduce this click on "system" and try to take a screenshot of the dropdown.

currently my way around this is to "record" my desktop using ffmpeg, however i wonder if there is a better alternative way?

Ubuntu :: Firefox Minefield Dropdown Menus

Feb 26, 2011

When running Firefox 4.0b13pre (2011-02-25) Minefield occasionally and suddenly I can't access any item in a drop-down menu. The menu appears but just disappears when attempting to move the mouse cursor into the drop-down items list. When the problem starts it applies to all menus. The only solution is to close Firefox and reopen when, of course, all is fine until next time. The problem seems to begin entirely randomly and I can't reproduce it at will.

Fedora :: See The Text On Dropdown Menus And Title Bars

Nov 10, 2009

owners out there they released the KindleforPC program today. As expected it's only Windows and (soon) Mac, BUT it WILL run on Linux under Wine with only a couple of oddities. (Such as not being able to see the text on dropdown menus and title bars. If you click into a book it'll load for reading, you just can't see any of the menuing.

Ubuntu :: Delay After Taking Screenshot?

Aug 15, 2011

I've been experiencing a weird delay between me pressing the printscreen key and the screenshot dialog appearing. The delay is about one second, and is happening even though gnome-screenshot's delay key is set to zero in gconf-editor. This delay is making it difficult to capture things which disappear quickly, and I'd like to know if there's any way to make the screenshot dialog appear instantly.

Ubuntu :: Drop-down Menus On DeviantArt (screenshot Included)?

Aug 25, 2010

There is a strange gray bar under the search bar (top left corner) and the Login and Shop drop-down menus won't work for some reason.

I'm using Lucid lynx and the default FireFox browser that comes with it.

I guess I should note that I don't have problems with drop down menus on other websites.

Ubuntu :: Dropdown Menu Shadows With RGBA And Compiz?

Jul 1, 2010

It took me a while and maybe someone else already know this, but I recently added RGBA to give me more transparency. But when I did this the shadows on the dropdown menus on the panel and in nautilus were not shadowed.

To correct this in Compizconfig Settings Manager: Turn on Window Decoration is you haven't already. Copy/Paste this line in the Shadow Windows info box:

[Code]...

That should be enough to get your drop shadows back on the drop down menu items. worked for me. Even works on the menus in Chromium even if the GTK themes window border is off, but is still won't shadow the window if GTK window borders are turned off.

Ubuntu :: Type In An Address, It Does Not Bring The Dropdown Menu?

Oct 18, 2010

My Ubuntu goes to sleep after 5 minutes. When I wake it up, and enter Firefox, and try to type in an address, it does not bring the dropdown menu with the history of the URLs that begin with the string I just typed. Is there anyway to get it to stop forgetting the history after Ubuntu comes back from sleep?

Ubuntu :: Firefox Menu Bar And Location Bar Dropdown Is Unresponsive?

Nov 11, 2010

I have been having issues with the Firefox browser for the past few months. Firefox version: 3.6.11 Ubuntu x86_64 OS: Ubuntu 10.04 x86_64
Add ons: Flash block, Ad Block+, image block Occasionally on booting up and starting Firefox, the top menu bar, the location bar drop down do not work. Clicking them has no effect. Though I can enter a URL in the location bar, the drop down that gives recently browsed sites is unavailable. Using the keyboard shortcuts for these doesn't work too. So essentially all my browsing history, bookmarks, saved passwords are not accessible.

Restarting the browser/system doesn't . Deleting the whole profile folder restores the functionality, though it takes me back to a blank slate as far as my personalisation and browsing history is concerned and everything needs to be rebuilt. Restoring the profile folder causes the issue to reappear. So it appears to have something to do with the profile stored. Would like to look if any one has has similar issues but can't get a hang of how to best describe this or how others would have described it. I am sure you understand how bad it feels when all the history, bookmarks, passwords etc are in a way lost when this happens. Also how and where to post this or search if already similar bug is posted with Ubuntu and Firefox.

P.S: Is there a way to separate the personal info like history, passwords and bookmarks from the profile somehow?

Ubuntu Multimedia :: GIMP Zoom Level Dropdown Box Missing?

Jul 17, 2010

There used to be a dropdown menu at the bottom right corner of the main window of GIMP (the window with whatever image i'm working on), where i would be able to select between zoom levels (such as 50%, 100%, etc). Recently, that menu seems to have disappeared, and i've had to use the actual zoom tool, which i find frustrating since i have to switch back and forth between tools.

Ubuntu :: Dropdown Menu In Places On Panel Always Only Launches Banshee?

Aug 7, 2010

Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid), GNOME 2.30.2. After some time of correct operation, my dropdown menu from "Places" in the GNOME Panel has gone wrong.

If I click Places and then click on any of the dropdown shown, Home Folder, Desktop, Documents, Music, Pictures, Videos, Downloads, before the horizontal line separator, Banshee launches. Those after the separator, Computer, Floppy and my Hard Drives, launch correctly.

I have tried restoring the Panel to its original setting with no luck.

Software :: Get A Signal When A GtkComboBox Dropdown Closes?

Nov 23, 2010

I have an app with a Drawing window that gets partially overwritten by the drop down of a combo box. When the combo box closes, the drawing window does not get any window invalidate type messages and that section just stays blank until something else happens that causes the drawing window to repaint. I want to trap the close of the combo box and queue a redraw of the drawing window. However, I can't find any signal that happens when the combo closes without changing the active selection. When the selection changes I get the changed event and can repaint. When the selection does not change, nothing happens.

Ubuntu :: Graphics 10.10 - Wireless Icon At The Top - Dropdown Menu Is Displayed At A 45 Degree Angle

Mar 31, 2011

I have a Hp Touchsmart Tx2 with AMD processor and ATi graphics. I installed Ubuntu 10.10 (64 bit) last night for the second time, the first time i had this problem so i thought maybe another download and another install would help, and i have dual boot setup with windows vista on the other partition. So the install went fine but when i am at the home screen in Ubuntu and i click something like the wireless icon at the top, or the time at the top, or any of those icons the dropdown menu is displayed at a 45 degree angle or something.

Also the drop down menus in firefox will do it too, i'm sure others will as well. It is really wierd and i already installed the flxgr Ati driver (i think thats what its called) via the additional drivers application. Also when i open the terminal it is displayed at this same angle. The outline is perfect put the content inside is skewed. Also I should mention overall its just slow and laggy and the wifi cuts in and out. I took some pictures with my camera cause when i took a screen shot the menu for that was slanted and i couldn't see what the options were.

Ubuntu :: Screenshot & Keyboard Shortcut?

Feb 1, 2011

I frequently need to take screenshots of a game (flash-based, running inside a browser), in particular it's statistics screen which is shown when I hold the TAB key. The problem is, when I take a screenshot, either by pressing PrintScreen key or by pressing a custom-defined shortcut, the game responds to this keypress and hides its statistics screen, so the screenshot doesn't contain the information I need.I figured out how to overcome this using a custom application launcher icon; but this requires using the mouse which is rather inconvenient.define a shortcut that wouldn't be processed by the active application? Or maybe there's some screenshot utility that does this out of the box?

Ubuntu :: Take A Screenshot Of A Java Applet?

Mar 12, 2011

Ok here's what I'd like to do:

Take a screenshot, or some other way of saving the visual output of a java applet [URL], and saving that as an image, without having to manually do it (open browser go there, and take a screenshot).

I guess this would be most easily done using a script of some sort, but I have no idea how to go about doing this..

I would like to do this, so I can use this image to update my conky every 30 secs or so (got that part figured out ).

Ubuntu :: Cannot Do Screenshot Using 'PrtSc' Key On Net-book

May 27, 2011

I was gathering some screenshots to use in a tutorial on how to do something in Unity. For the most part that went well... however I did find an unfortunate quirk.When I Right-Click any of the items in the Unity Launcher panel, and they bring up the submenu (for example I did the modification to add Pics, Docs etc to my Home Folder in the Launcher) I then cannot do a screenshot using my "PrtSc" key on my netbook. This only happens when the submenus are visible. Unfortunate because I wanted to get a screen shot of the submenus.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Mplayer Screenshot Png Compression

Sep 13, 2010

I use mplayer to play my media files. Occasionally I want to take screenshots of media I am playing. I use the -vf screenshot option to take screenshots which generates shotxxxx.png. The issue is that all those png are not compressed and usually large. When dealing with Hi-Def media they are extremely large, each is 4-5 MB in size at the least. Is there a way I can set the option for compression of png images. If I use imagemagick the same files get compressed to like 1.5MB of png file.
