Take limited screenshots

[EZCheeZe]

Is there a way to take a screenshot from x1,y1 to x2,y2? I have looked in the help file, and in mt VB book, but I have not found it. Any insight will be helpful.

First, do you know how to get a screenshot at all? Once you have one, it will be a regular bitmap and using GDI+ you can crop it to whatever size you want. Ill try and put something together tomorrow if you cant figure it out by then

Alas, I do not know how to make a screenshot. I have searched this book cover to cover, and nothing. There is also nothing that comes up in the help file

Sorry - this is in C#. Im not sure of any good VB.NET resources. The objects and methods should be the same in both so it shouldnt be hard to convert - the basic idea will be the same.

Im not 100% sure this article will help but it is used to do generic screen captures so it may, at least, get you started:
