possible to take screenshot of <select> while open


We have a web page with a select box dropdown. I need to take a screenshot of the page with the select dropdown "open". However, every time I press the printscreen button, the page loses focus and the select closes before it's able to take the screenshot. The screenshot always displays it closed or in the transition animation of it closing.

Is there a different way to take this screenshot, or maybe some way to force the select to stay open after the browser losing focus?

I'm using KDE Plasma 5.18.5.


Solution

  • It's not the perfect solution, but I downloaded simplescreenrecorder, recorded the screen, then took a screenshot of the paused video with the select open.
