Methods to Take Screenshot Capture in Linux
1. Using Print Screen
This is the most common method to take screenshots. Pressing the “Print Screen” button will take the screenshot of the “Entire Visible Screen”.
When we want to take a particular window, we can use “Alt+Print Screen”. Alt+PrintScreen will take only the particular window which is currently active.
2.Capture the Entire Screen:
From the UI, to take a screenshot with entire screen, select “Grab the whole desktop” and click “Take Screenshot”.
From the command-line, just type the command “gnome-screenshot” to do the same. The command will take a screenshot and provide a dialog to save it.
Capture Only the Current Window:
From the UI, to take the screenshot of the current active window alone, select “Grab the Current Window” and click “Take Screenshot”.
From the command-line, use the -w option as follows to do the same.
Take Screenshot Including or Excluding Window Border:
From the UI, you can also include or exclude the window border by selecting/deselecting “Include the Window Border” option.
From the command line, use -b/-B options respectively to do the same. This command will include the window border along with the screenshot.
The following command will exclude the window border from the screenshot.
