Screen capture program that gets entire applications (scrolls down)

[w3stfa11]

I'm looking for a screenshot program that works like these two Firefox extensions but for standard Windows applications. I need to capture the contents of an application window (which needs to be scrolled).

Unless it's built into the application, I don't think you're going to have much luck. Your best bet is to take 2 or more screenshots and manually splice them together.

EDIT: I stand corrected 🙂 See below

SnagIt will work. They have a free trial too. Here's the link: http://www.techsmith.com/screen-capture.asp

+1 for SnagIt by TechSmith.

I used SnagIt for years and often used the scrolling / capture feature. It worked well.

But I have one observation. It often ran afoul of DEP. Now I stopped using SnagIt (and Windows, for that matter) about a year ago, so this problem may have been fixed by now. But as of a year ago I was having a hard time getting Techsmith's tech support folks to take this issue seriously. (And, no, excluding the application from DEP isn't a solution.)

😀

Anyway, the reasons I'm posting are:
1. to warn of the possibility of problems with DEP, and
2. to ask you to post back with results of your testing. (just to satisfy my curiosity)

Thanks

Heh, I didn't think I'd have much luck either, but Anandtech knows all. 🙂

Thanks, I'll give SnagIt a shot.
