Delayed screenshot #9

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

1. Open a drop-down menu or a hidden menu with Alt (Explorer.exe, Firefox…). 
Something volatile to losing focus.
2. Try to capture window with AeroShot.
* Using the GUI makes the subject lose focus and hide before the screenshot is 
taken.
* The Alt in Alt-PrintScreen also hides my subjects.

Using AeroShot 1.3.2 on Windows 7 Home Premium.

I would like to be able to shoot these elusive targets and I suspect adding a 
option to delay the actual screenshot from the time of the 
key-press/button-click by a couple of seconds would allow it as follows:

Activate AeroShot -> Open and focus subject -> AeroShot fires

Couldn't figure how to add this as an enhancement, not a defect.

I need this today so went ahead and made the minimal necessary modifications as 
a quick hack. Pressing ALT+PrtScn will have the normal behavior but adding CTRL 
to the combo, as in CTRL+ALT+PrtScn, will take the screenshot with a delay of 5 
seconds (sorry, hard-coded). It gives enough time to, for example, pop open to 
some menu in the target window before the screenshot is taken.
