No option to modify screenshot #6

I can't only limit my screenshot to active window , neither any option to delay screenshot .

The idea was to screenshot the entire desktop originally. I think the best way would be to make the Haiku screenshot app scriptable, so we would ask it to show its own UI and let the user select the options it want and take the screenshot, and use the generated file.

The current screenshot app is already scriptable to the best of my knowledge. Try " screenshot - - help."

I'm not sure it's really necessary. You know it takes the upper left corner as screenshot. You arrange the windows and whatever the click the make-a-screenshot button in ThemeManager, its window hides for a second, et voilá. Not satisfied: rearrange the windows etc. and click the putton again.

Personnally, I like that it doesn't take shot of whole desktop so I can hide the mess while it does. :D So I agree with humdingerb on mechanism though a wider zone would be appreciated if possible.
