screenshot and printscreen is not working in eclipse


I am unable to take screenshot / printscreen of my eclipse menu.

when I try to take screen shot of the eclipse menu file -> new -> Android project my print screen is not working.

when any of the menu is in clicked mode(i.e file,edit, run, ...)

Note: I am using ubuntu linux


Solution

  • Yes, any keypress will dismiss a menu.

    General workaround to this issue is to delay the actual screenshot action.

    In Gnome you can issue this command in command line:

    $ gnome-panel-screenshot --window --delay 5

    and it will take a screenshot after 5 seconds delay - of the window that is current at that time
